First thing that happens after being cuffed is you get IDENTIFIED. Usually officer will simply relate to control, one in custody and their status. Followed up by identification, and yes you don’t get to keep a mask on, it gets inventoried and place in a property bag to tag along with you as you ride to jail.
I know if you riot, masks can be taken off, I'm not sure about the laws in the US, do you need to show your face after being arrested?

It is considered "bad policing" to do otherwise for the many obvious reasons.
