    hi,

    First, you need to understand the difference between Header Image and Featured Image.
    A Header Image appears on all posts/pages.
    A Featured Image is specific to the post/page that it is tagged to.
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/featured-images/ vs https://en.support.wordpress.com/custom-header-image/

    If you want a layout which has random header images,
    1. go to Customizer > Header Images
    2. add a few images
    3. click on Randomize suggested headers

    The above will show a random header image with every post, page.

    If instead you want a specific image to appear with a specific post, page, you can choose a theme that contains the featured image feature. Your current theme Toujours does not display featured image for pages.
    I tested with the Dara theme and it shows featured images for both posts and pages.
    Once you have chosen an appropriate theme, make sure you do not set a Header Image.
    Instead, set a different featured image for each of your post/page. Then a visitor who visits a post or a page will see a different image at the top.

    Let us know if you have more questions.

    Hi there,

    This depends on your theme, and your current theme cannot show different header images on different pages, aside from the option to have a randomly rotating custom header image for the site.

    You can find all themes that instead uses the featured image as a page header here:
