Why do people wear turbans?

99% of the people you will see wearing turbans in the U.S, Canada, and UK will be Sikhs, a religious group that originated in India during the 15th century. Sikhs wear turbans because they believe that god gave you hair during your birth, so you should not alter god's gifts in anyway. Therefore they do not cut their hair, although it is very common to see a Sikh wear a turban; yet have a trimmed beard, honestly because it is becoming "fashion", rather than religion. Sikhs' turbans are pointy at the tip of the head; can be circular. Minors usually wear their hair in a bun and type turbans on their heads that enclose their bunned hair. Western Media has blinded Americans in the propaganda, that people with turbans are Arabs or Muslims. When in fact, most, if not all, will be from India belonging to the Sikh or Hindu religion.
