Understanding the Sikh Turban
  
  The turbans (dastaar) that Sikh Indians wear aren’t just for show, their turbans are a sign of respectability and an article of faith.
    Turbans are a part of Sikh history.  Most Sikhs don’t cut their hair and keep it covered. 
    Since 9-11, many Sikhs have been unfairly targeting for wearing turbans.  They are misidentified as Muslims, primarily because Osama bin Laden wears a head wrap.
   Sikhs are not Muslim they follow the religion of Sikhism, which originated in Punjab.  Turbans are a part of their strength.
  Over the centuries they have fought and died  to continue the right to not cut their hair and wear a turban.
