bare-headed

Lacking head covering

Bare-headed means without a hat or other head covering: She walked bare-headed in the rain.

The term often appears in contexts where head covering would be expected or customary—religious settings, cold weather, or formal occasions: The mourners stood bare-headed at the graveside.
