Skinhead danced without clothes (8)

I believe the answer is:

stripped

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'danced without clothes' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'skinhead' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'skinhead' could be 's' (head letter of 'skin') and 's' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'tripped' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for stripped that I've seen before include "Removed paint - or clothes" , "behaved 'naughtily' in club?" , "Undressed" , "Removed clothing, perhaps forpay" , "Pets drip (anag)" .)
