In order to accomplish this, you need to push and pull the attacker away by the shirt.
Avoid grabbing the attacker behind the neck.
Natural instinct is to grab the attacker behind the neck and draw the head down for a headbutt, but the problem with this is that the neck and shoulder muscles naturally tense when grabbed behind the neck, making it much more difficult to pull the person forward. -
Step 2: Push the attacker away.
Use your full body weight to push forward into the attacker until his upper body leans back.
This movement causes the attacker to lose balance and causing his or her shoulders to disengage.
Since this movement is also likely to be unexpected, you will also have the element of surprise on your side. , As soon as the attacker's shoulders disengage, use your arms to pull the attacker back toward your head.
With the shoulders disengaged in this manner, the attacker's arms will naturally swing open, preventing him or her from using the arms to block the headbutt. , As you draw the attacker toward you, bring your head down so that the top of your head meets with the attacker's nose as his or her nose drops down.
Strike with the top of your head.
