First, don't use all caps as it seem as you are SCREAMING, second, when you say hide user on lockscreen, are you referring as the pull down notification bar to select a different user? if so, you can't, that's how lollipop works.

You can remove the guest account, then from lock screen quick settings there is no option to enter a guest account unless you unlock the device first.

I tested this on a Z2, Z5c and a Z5 and if the device is locked, no one can access any user accounts.

@sgizmo First remove the user account completely under settings - users and remove all data from the session:
