Bibiya And Small Dastaar

[Guest bibi]

I have a question for bibiya who wear dastaar. Some bibiya have really compact dastaar, like i mean super compact and flat at the top and I wonder how they do that? I mean is their hair short so they have a small joorra? I just can't do that with my joorra, and not that it matters but I just wondered how to get the joorra flatter so I dont' have a huge bulge at the top of my dastaar.

Ok what you do is instead of tying your kes tightly, tie it looser...and when you're tying your dastar, leavea little at the back befoer starting your first larh..and as you're tying it, pull that little piece from the back..that'll bring your kes down and make it compact and flatter looking....then before you tie your last larh, wrap that piece into the kapra...

I hope tht makes sense....i've only seen it being done once or twice so I might be out of my mind hahahah....

i still think bigger dastaar are nicer, more reasonable sized ones! with an actualy joora underneath lol, bunga (even a small one) preferably

A "pancake keski" isn't really appropriate. Gursikhs should have their joora on their dasam duaar which is the mid-front of the skull. You can see exactly on babies because they're bald and have a soft spot at that place.

A pancake keski is essentially a compromise to 'look' better or esthetically more pleasing when the whole point of bana is to look pleasing to Guru Sahib first and foremost. I think if a sister is making the effort to wear a dastaar, she shouldn't sell herself short by going with the pancake keski.

as in a bunga

yeah if your gonig to tie a keski then make sure people know whos walking down the street.

There isnt much point of a dastaar if you dont tie it in a way which is practical and very stable.
