Question:

Does the Fast become Makruh by not covering the hair? 

 Answer:

Bismillah

If by not covering the hair you mean outside your house in front of strange men then it will be considered a sin. Committing sins whilst fasting will render your fast to be Makruh.

Saaiduna Abu Hurairah raḍyAllāhu 'anhu (may Allāh be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet of Allah ṣallallāhu 'alayhi wa sallam (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) said: “It may be that the fasting person gets nothing from his fast apart from hunger, and it may be that the one who prays qiyaam at night may get nothing from his qiyaam but a sleepless night.” (Sunan Ibn Majah p.121 v.1)
