The most important thing is to understand how the tradition works for Sikh women, not how Sikh women work for the tradition. It’s important to do what empowers you, whether that’s keeping all of your hair, some of your hair, or none of it. And make sure to question family and practice. Sikhism isn’t a definite thing, it’s a journey and a process and it’s important to allow women, trans* and non-binary people to practice or not practice Sikhism without the glare of patriarchy.
