2.Here is another variation of the dhamala turban without the Chand Tora. Each person adopts their own method of tying the dhamala. Once you learn the basics you can tweak the method to fit you.
Damallas definitely vary in width and length. The pieces I used were:
one 5 meter piece (Dark Blue)
one 11 meter piece (White or Blue or any color, this piece has a knot at the end to hold it on my head in the beginning)
Both pieces are about 35 cm wide, and referred to in Amritsar as Damalla Material. I'm not sure of the official name of it.
The difficulty with tying a Damala is usually in getting the shape right. It may take a good 5-10 tries of tying practice to get the right shape.

When I Tie My Dastar
When I tie my Dastar
I don’t see my reflection looking back at me,
Nay, I see my forefathers dying for my freedom.
I don’t comb the tangles out of my hair,
I comb out the pain of generations past.
I don’t tie up my hair on top of my head,
I tie together the memories of my people dead.
I don’t tie my Dastar with love and care,
I tie bandages on the wounds of torture and oppression.
I don’t place the Simrana on the top of my Dumalla,
I remember the number of victims of 1984.
200,000 presumed dead.
25 years later.
Still no justice.
I remain as a reminder to these atrocities, and all other atrocities past.
Look into my eyes and you will not see pain,
You will see pride.
Pride of my martyr-hood,
Pride of the rivers full of blood my people left behind,
And pride of the freedom we have paid for with our lives.
I will keep tying my Dastar,
Tall and proud,
I will never forget,
For the memories are loud.
When I tie my Dastar every morning , on my head,
I remember all my brothers and sisters, in cold blood dead.
When I tie my Dastar every morning , on my head,
I remember all my brothers and sisters, in cold blood dead.
When I tie my Dastar every morning, on my head,
I remember all my brothers and sisters, in cold blood dead.
When I tie my Dastar, I remember.
