How does a head scissors feel?

There are many factors but mainly it depends on where the pressure is concentrated. when the pressure is concentrated on the sides of the skull or on the jaw area it can be very painful. If the legs are squeezing your neck it can be less painful but can restrict the blood flow to your head and make you feel light headed or even lose consciousness. Other factors to consider are the sizes and shapes of the person applying and receiving the hold, the variation of head scissors that is being applied, and the strength of the person applying the hold.
