This is called patchy baldness i.e. Alopecia areata. Try to take more proteins, avoid pollution, use scarf. Avoid using cosmetic shampoos and try to use some medicated shampoos and hair oils. Try arnica+jaborandi mix hair oil and also shampoo which can help in reducing hair fall. Let me know if there is any dandruff which needs to be treated first.

Dear lybrate-user. First of all, there is a less probability of getting back normal hairs in your case (Due to your age; medicines responds less as the age increases). Second, if you are really serious in getting results regarding hairs, then please stop smoking. Third, avoid stress of any kind as it increases hair fall. Fourth, I assume you must be drinking too (usually smoking and drinking goes hand in hand; an assumption), if yes then please stop that too. Fifth, Eat healthy, proteinaceous diet. You can visit a Cosmetologist for further instructions or can take a private consultation.
