bare spots

Lawn's thin sections

Bare spots are areas where covering is absent—patches of lawn where grass won't grow, sections of scalp where hair has thinned, or places on a carpet worn down to the backing.

The term implies incompleteness against a surface that should be uniform: The lawn has bare spots from the dog.

His comb-over couldn't hide the bare spots.
