Not a dumb question! A lot of folks assume does get have headers is a no, but it’s a yes.

Headers are part of the HTTP protocol itself, not the method. You can use them to pass auth, control caching, or even just tag requests for logging.

If you’re working with APIs, check out https://httpbin.org/headers—it echoes back your request headers, so you can see exactly what’s being sent.
