bareheadedness
Head without covering
The state of having one's head uncovered—without a hat, cap, scarf, or other head covering.
The word is rarely used, since the condition itself is unremarkable in most contexts.
It might appear in discussions of dress codes, religious customs, or weather: His bareheadedness in the freezing rain worried his mother.
