Seattle Turban was founded by Davinder Singh with a single conviction — An individual deserves to get their dream look on their special day.
What began as a service for family and friends in Washington grew into a team that now travels across the entire United States and Mexico, bringing precision and reverence to every occasion they serve.
“When someone sits before me, I understand how important their day is. I tie turbans according to the individuals face shape, and ceremony type, so that it suits their face and they look the BEST.”
Today, with Varinder Singh joining as co-artisan, the team has tied over 500 turbans across 50+ cities, maintaining a perfect 5-star reputation built entirely on word of mouth and genuine care.

Four principles. Every single turban.
Precision
Every Turban is deliberate. We take the time your turban deserves — We pay attention to every little detail that contributes to the final look.

How to Tie a Sikh Dastar (Pagg): A Complete Step-by-Step Guide
By Seattle Turban · 6 min read
Tying a Sikh Dastar — also called a pagg or turban — is one of the most meaningful acts in the Sikh tradition. Whether learning for yourself or preparing for a wedding, this guide covers everything.
What You Will Need
A pagg cloth — 6.5 to 7.5 metres, washed and stitched at the edges
A flat surface or helper to hold the cloth taut
A mirror to check symmetry and adjust the front fold
Step 1: Prepare the Cloth
Wash and lightly starch your pagg cloth before beginning. Fold it lengthwise to a width of around 5 to 7 inches depending on the style.
Step 2: Set the Starting Position
Place the centre of the cloth at the back of your head, bringing both ends forward over your shoulders. The starting position determines the final shape.
Step 3: Build the Larhs
Wrap one end across the forehead, pulling taut and angling slightly upward. Each wrap is a larh. A standard Dastar uses 5 to 6 larhs.
Step 4: Secure and Shape
Tuck the remaining cloth at the back. Adjust the front for clean symmetry — a well-tied pagg has a perfectly even front fold with no loose fabric.
For weddings or important events, a professional ensures a flawless result. Seattle Turban serves Washington, Las Vegas, and across the USA.

Dastar vs Saafa: Which Wedding Pagg Style is Right for Your Big Day?
By Seattle Turban · 5 min read
The two most popular wedding pagg choices are the Sikh Dastar and the Saafa. Both are beautiful — but they carry different traditions and suit different occasions.
The Sikh Dastar
The Dastar is deeply rooted in Sikh tradition. Tied with 6 to 7 metres in multiple tight larhs, it sits high on the head projecting dignity. For Anand Karaj it is not just preferred — it is expected.
Best for: Sikh weddings, Anand Karaj, formal ceremonies
The Saafa is most common at Hindu and Punjabi weddings. Flexible in colour, it ties lower on the head with a fan-shaped front that photographs beautifully.
Best for: Hindu weddings, Punjabi celebrations, photoshoots
Fabric: 5 to 6 metres, no stitching required

Tips & Advice
How Many Metres of Fabric Do You Need for a Pagg?
By Seattle Turban · 4 min read
One of the most common questions: how long does my pagg cloth need to be?
Sikh Dastar
5 Larh: 6.5 metres — compact and clean
6 Larh (recommended): 7.5 metres — fuller, ideal for weddings
Children aged 2 to 6: 4 metres
Saafa / Pheta
5 to 6 metres depending on fabric thickness
No stitching required — use the cloth directly
Preparing Your Pagg Cloth
For Sikh Dastars the cloth must be washed and stitched at the edges before your appointment. For Saafa and Pheta styles no preparation is needed.

The Meaning of the Dastar: Why the Pagg is Sacred in Sikh Culture
By Seattle Turban · 7 min read
To a Sikh, the Dastar is far more than fabric. It is a crown of honour and a symbol of the values that define Sikhi.
What the Pagg Represents
The Dastar represents five values: honour, self-respect, courage, spirituality, and piety. Tying it each morning is a daily renewal of commitment to the Guru's teachings.
History
The tradition was formalised by Guru Gobind Singh Ji in 1699. He gave the pagg to every Sikh — regardless of caste or class — as a declaration of equal sovereignty and spiritual dignity.
The Dastar Bandi
The first tying of a young Sikh's turban — the Dastar Bandi — is a profound milestone celebrated with great reverence by the entire community.
At Seattle Turban every pagg we tie carries this weight — one fold at a time.
