In my opinion the decision to start tying a dastar, or turban, as a Sikh is a personal choice. It is typically associated with those who have undergone the Amrit initiation ceremony, committing to the Sikh way of life. However, not all Sikhs who have taken Amrit wear a dastar, and some Sikhs who haven’t taken Amrit may choose to wear one. The timing to begin tying a dastar depends on an individual’s readiness, understanding of Sikh principles, and personal commitment to the faith.
Excellent reply, Harcharan ji!
