Step 1
Use the kenpo clutching feathers technique as a form of self-defense against someone who is pulling your hair.
-
Step 2
Trap the attacker's hand before he has a chance to pull you forward by the hair. When his hand is at your temple, reach up with your left hand and hold on top of his palm, pushing down. This will also help stop the painful pulling.
-
Step 3
Bend slightly at your knees and swing at the hips to gain strength and momentum as you throw an upward hook with your right hand to your attacker's side, just below the armpit. This move will not only cause pain to your attacker, but will make it difficult for her to punch you with her right hand, as she is now being pushed away from you.
-
Step 4
Push the attacker's hand off of your head as soon as you punch to the armpit, as in this second he will loosen his grip. Bring your right arm down and around quickly, striking him with a back fist in the upper arm and further pushing his arm away from you.
-
Step 5
Chamber your left hand back into your body as you are performing the right backfist, stepping back with your left leg so that you can build some force and then swing the heel of your left palm fast and strong to your attacker's face. Use the opening you have created with the kenpo clutching feathers technique to escape and call for help.
