It also protects long hair that Sikh does not hide and keeps it clean. The sacrifice is mandatory for all Khalsa members (Sikh initiated) to be used. The turban of Rajastani is also commonly called pagari (in the West, many Sikhs wearing pagri are sometimes mistaken for Muslims or Arabs.).
All Sikh Teachers since Guru Nanak have been wearing a turban. However, covering one's hair with turban is made official policy by Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh Teacher. The main reason for wearing a turban is to care for hair, promote equality, and maintain the Sikh identity. Sikh women can wear a turban if they want.
Sikhs do not cut their hair, as religious obedience. The turban protects the hair and makes it clean. Since Sikhs make up only 2% of the Indian population, their turbans help identify them. When he instituted the turban as part of the Sikh identity, Guru Gobind Singh said, "My Sikhs will be recognized among millions of people."
Turban was previously associated with the upper classes, and many men in the cultural elite still wear turbans. The distinction between upper classes wearing turbans (Sardars) and commoners promotes segregation and elitism. To eliminate the class system associated with turbans, Master Gobind Singh Ji declares each Sikh a Sardar.

The meaning of turbans is that the white turban means a saint who leads an exemplary life, and off-shade white color means one is learning in Sikhism. Blue turban signifies the mind as wide as the sky without a place for prejudice. The black stuff is a reminder of the persecution of British Sikhs in 1919, and represents humility. An orange turban represents courage, and wisdom. Royal blue is usually worn by those who are educated in Sikh religion. Akali Nihang Sikhs adorn their turban or Dumalla by using a small weapon known as the shastar inside. The color of the turban may reflect a relationship with a particular Sikh group, although no color of the turban is popular exclusively for a particular group. The color of the turban is generally a matter of personal preference in Sikhism, with many Sikhs choosing colors based on fashion or taste, sometimes to match clothing. There are traditions associated with some colors, such as orange and black are often worn at demonstrations of political protests while red and pink turbans are worn at weddings and other celebration events.
