Hi!
Photograph 1 - shows patchy loss of hair which could be an autoimmune condition called alopecia areata. Further evaluation is needed before starting the treatment.
Photograph 2 - shows thick greasy scales which is a condition called seborrheic dermatitis. Depending on the severity and area involved treatment should be started.
Highly recommend you to see a dermatologist who can guide you further on this.
