Bibiji, a damala/dastar is this smilie :nihungsmile: or :e:

A pagh/rain-catcher is this smilie :T:

Alot of the youths that I know prefer damalla/dastar because its easier to put on, plus it looks very stylish and they stand out more from the norm. :e:

FATEH ji!

i got  a 7 metre malmal material, and i folded it n tried tying the dumalla .. from the video

Image attached is my latest try.. and yeh i cant get that joora down :wub:

i agree with S1NGH that is a great attempt!!!!!!! lol i've also tried using the video to tie the gol dastaar like the bhenji but no luck yet! i can't figure out how long the material should be my dad reckons 5 metres is too long for me! can anyone help? my dad tried to saja dastaar on me but it was waaaaaaaay too loose (plus i kinda got cussed for my joora because my hair is layered so it doesn't all tie in)! <_< looks like i have to keep practising!

The moguls did not like Sikhs wearing turbans, as this was a sign of royalty etc. For this reason, they said only Muslims could wear turbans. In response to this, Guru Ji ordered Sikhs to wear two turbans just to show the Moguls they had no fear of them. For this reason, a tradition of two turbans were started. In this way, the orange bit would be a smaller turban that is worn underneath the one on top. This is called a keski, as quoted by Iron Arm veer Ji
