I've been searching for an answer to this question over the years. Most christians believe that during prayers, the females must cover their hair while the males leave it open. Do we have any bible reference that back this up or it's just an adopted tradition?

It's in the Bible.
But it is a widely debated passage of the Bible. With various groups opting for their own preferences or interpretation.
I honestly don't have any opinion on this. Follow the traditions of your church and your conscience for peace to reign .
1 Corinthians 11:3-10

Just read 1Corinthians 11:3-7.

The Bible said so, you claim to be a christian, you should abide by the standard of the gospel of Christ.

1 Corinthians 11:3-10 King James Version (KJV)

3But I would have you know, that the head of every
man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man;
and the head of Christ is God.

4Every man praying or prophesying, having his head
covered, dishonoureth his head.

5But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with
her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is
even all one as if she were shaven.

6For if the woman be not covered, let her also be
shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or
shaven, let her be covered.

7For a man indeed ought not to cover his head,
forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but
the woman is the glory of the man.

8For the man is not of the woman: but the woman of
the man.

9Neither was the man created for the woman; but the
woman for the man.

10For this cause ought the woman to have power on
her head because of the angels.

I think a christian should follow the bible and not a church. Even pastors use the bible as their guide.

I agree with you totally.
Like I said earlier, it is a passage of the scriptures that has been interpreted differently by various Christians group. In an event where one is confused, it is safer to follow the Holy Spirit leading or your religious organization/church leaders' interpretation. If you don't have confidence in your church's leadership then you have no business been there.
