Sikh Turban (Dastar or Pagi ), is a mandatory item of headgear for Sikh men. Dastar is very clearly associated with Sikhism and is an important part of the Sikh culture. Among the Sikhs, the turban is an article of faith that represents honour, self-respect, courage, spirituality, and piety. The Khalsa Sikh men, who adorn the Five Ks, wear the turban partly to cover their long, uncut hair (kesh). The turban is embellished by a half moon protection symbol called the Ardh Chand.
