In the first set of code, I've duplicated your resulting file (I think). The result isn't a 2x3 matrix at all. The brackets are there because hend, pend, ... are lists (because of the way you defined them).

Clear[hend,pend,shend,spend,aend,cend]
values={hend,pend,shend,spend,aend,cend};
names=ToString/@values;
data={{84.44222381154862}, {17.295098646610068}, {0.9999464544412083} \
,{0.00005354555879104163} ,{0.6314412255157023} ,{0.16406999044034634}};
Put[names,"output.csv"];
{hend,pend,shend,spend,aend,cend}=data;
PutAppend[values,"output.csv"];
ReadList["output.csv"]

{{hend,pend,shend,spend,aend,cend},{{84.4422},{17.2951},{
     0.999946},{0.0000535456},{0.631441},{0.16407}}}

In this version, Flatten eliminates the brackets:

Clear[hend,pend,shend,spend,aend,cend]
values={hend,pend,shend,spend,aend,cend};
names=ToString/@values;
Put[names,"output.csv"];
{hend,pend,shend,spend,aend,cend}=Flatten@data;
PutAppend[values,"output.csv"];
ReadList["output.csv"]

{{hend,pend,shend,spend,aend,cend},{
     84.4422,17.2951,0.999946,0.0000535456,0.631441,0.16407}}

Flatten@data could be replaced by First/@data, or the definition of each variable could include First, as in hend=h[time]/.First@sol or hend=First[h[time]/.sol.
