Safa: Rajasthani Turban in generally known as Safa. Safa is ten meters in length and one meter in width but it is not standard because every 12 meters you travel in Rajasthan you will find variations. A Safa is much more than just an item of headgear to protect the wearer from the sun's heat. A Safa is about 30 feet long and about 4 feet wide. It was traditionally considered an essential part of a man's clothing, and to appear in public without one was a sign of bad behavior. The color, pattern, and style of tying a Turban vary according to community, and even district. Thus it is said that the dialect of men's Turbans changes every 12 miles in Rajasthan.
