Sikhs are generally classified into three groups. This division in not based on their beliefs, practices, or worship.All Sikhs follows same ideas and teachings of their Gurus but the difference is in their Life Style.

A Baptized Sikh is called Amrit Dhari Sikh, where Amrit Dhari is who has taken Nectar.

A Sikh who keeps his/her hair but is not Baptized is called Kesh Dhari Sikh.(Hair Adopter)

A Sikh who cuts hair and shave beard is called Sahaj Dhari Sikhs. (Slow Adopter). Not wearing turbans.

They are all Sikhs and hold same views but depending on their devotion they follow their religion.

please note, there is one more group which are called Nihang Sikhs, and same things apply here too. Same mode of worship, same idea but difference in life style.
