unwigged
Without false hair
Unwigged means having one's wig removed, or more commonly, exposed or revealed—as if stripping away a disguise.
The word appears in historical contexts where wigs signified status or formality: The judge sat unwigged in his chambers.
Figuratively, to unwig someone is to unmask or discredit them, though this usage is rare and literary.
