HAIR GRAB FROM THE OPPOSITE SIDE

OR BACK OF THE HEAD

Self-Defense

It’s possible that the attacker comes from the side but grabs the hair on the back
of your head, or reaches around to the other side. It’s also possible that an

attacker comes from the back and grabs the back of your head.

STARTING POSITION: Attacker grabs your hair from behind.

1. When you feel the pull, do not resist. Instead, burst in the direction of the pull,
ideally toward the shoulder of the hand that has grabbed you. You may feel
yourself “spin” around. Go with this motion (e.g., if the attacker on your left
reaches around and grabs the right side of your head and pulls, you will feel
yourself spinning to your right. Go in that direction).
