If you include an <apex:outputField> or an <apex:inputField> component in an <apex:pageBlockSectionItem>, these components do not display with their label or custom help text as they do when they are children of an <apex:pageBlockSectionItem>.

Also note that <apex:pageBlockSectionItem> components cannot be rerendered; rerender the child components instead. If you want to hide <apex:outputField> values label in visualforce page, you can use either above mentioned note or you can go through following strategy.

Just include your <apex:outputField> tags in <apex:panelGrid> tag which will hide the field labels.

If you want to display labels of <apex:outputField> values , simply remove <apex:panelGrid> tag, or you can use <apex:outputLabel> tag. Using “apex:outputLabel” tag you can give custom label to respective values.

To show default Labels of <apex:outputField> values on the Visualforce pages simply put all the <apex:outputField> tags in <apex:pageblocksection> tag.
