I agree ppine, I would think that any exposed area will help heat escape. Why wouldn't an uncovered head keep you cold. When it's smoking hot out and you're on the verge of passing out due to heat, you pour water over your head to help cool down. The thin area of skin allow the water to help cool the capillaries in your head, cool this down and it's conducted to the rest of you body. Nowhere as efficient and a radiator but works on the same principle. If you are pumping warm blood into a cold noggin, it's just going to recirculate this cooler than when it came in. Your body is already working to save heat and is trying to keep the primary organs warm. Hands and feet are going to feel this first. I say cover the head and keep as much as the heat in as possible.
