Rate my Turban(?)

[xkatz]

I want to know how this looks... I actually had to use the under turban though because the regular one is too long for me atm. So how does look? I am on the right track?

Find a Sikh to show you how to do it right.

Ya your probably right. I'll have to ask when I get opportunity. At least it's better than my first attempt at it

Also a new picture.

Better than my attempts with a scarf before visiting a Gurdwara

It looks like you have the triangular peek on the forehead, which looks good in my opinion. I get the impression from pictures on line that one needs to hold the end in one's mouth and that helps to get a very very tight hold on the head when you start to wrap it. Try searching for guides/videos online if you didn't already. I think it needs lots of pressure, more than feels normal, because you never see a Sikh with a loose turban and I guess they become looser as the day goes on.

PS I like the pepper on your nose You could drawn on yourself a false beard to look the part!

Hi Father Heathen
In my understanding (and I hope Gursikh, Wayfarer, Odion, Xkatz and others will give theirs) the status bonus of wearing a turban from a Sikh perspective are:

1) Symbolic that the wearer recognises that long hair is natural and it is the complete acceptance of nature (i.e. God)

2) Symbolic that they have done or are considering Sikh Baptism (amrit)

3) A sense of social and political identity (often where such identity is beneficial for moral or social reasons, rather than only political)

4) Sumbolic that they are following the 10th Guru's teachings specifically and so encompassing all of the 10 Guru's teaching, and not a break out sect.

5) A warrior - because of historic reasons this dress was used by the Khalsa, who are a warrior and defender. Sikh's do not believe in passivity if attacked, rather they have a militant strand (largely historic due to invaders in the Punjab).

6) It is pretty normal and practical way of dressing i.e. socially acceptable in the hot Punjab climate, I guess.

I should state these are my individual opinions and are liable to debate or error.

I'd rate it as a 3 or 2.


Needs to be up higher and embellished with decor.

Oh and it would help if you had a beard.

 

[DeitySlayer]

+10 stamina

+100 attack power

+15% crit damage

And a 10% chance to summon Guru Gobind Singh on a crit

Pretty much everything Onkarah said about the turban is correct. It basically gives Sikh a common identity.



And @ MissAlice,

Now that's a real turban!
