there are no color restrictions in sikhi. the most common colors for turbans are black, white, blue, yellow, and orange, but it's not hard and fast. baptized women cover their hair, sometimes with a scarf, sometimes a bandana, sometimes a turban. specific groups encourage the turban, and among sikh youth you'll…
these days most women from sikh backgronds remove their body hair, eyebrows, etc. it's only the baptized sikhs (about 10-15%) who are strict about following these guidelines. we don't have punishment for non-baptized sikhs, they're free to follow the faith as loosely or as strictly as they choose.
actually, sikh women DID traditionally wear turbans, but in the last hundred years, that has kind of faded. fortunately, with the renewed interest in feminism and women's rights, more and more sikh women are taking back the turban, as is our right and responsibility.
correct. sikh men and women WHO FOLLOW THEIR RELIGION do not remove any hair from the body. beards grow at different rates and to different lengths. some men leave them long and flowing, some tie them or put a net over them to keep them contained. there are tons of options, as long as you don't cut them.
