To show they loyal to their guru. And it's a sign of loyalty wearing a turban. ---- Sikhism believes that hair is the part of the creation of human body, therefore, Sikh are not suppose to cut their hair, Male and Female both. Since, not all can adhere to the teachings of Gurus depending on their own reasons, so the ones who have cut their hair, cover their head especially when they visit Gurudwara (Sikh place of worship). ----

Clarification: Sikhs cover their heads as a sign of respect/loyalty.
