5d Sheer savagery of being scalped?

Hi bean.

A bit hard to pin this one down without knowing how many letters the answer is to be or which letters, if any, you already have but ...

Assuming the clue is cryptic and needs 4 or 8 letters, the answer might be BALD or BALDNESS.

However, this is a bit of a shot in the dark.

barbarism
(I googled the clue. Baldness was a very good guess I thought)

thanks. it is barbarism
