I'm not trying to be a jerk but that's really unfair for the snake. When you're mad or upset let's grab you by the back of the head to control you.

The snake didn't choose to be handled so I don't see why the restraint is necessary. Just don't do it if you don't want to be bit.

I'm posting this because I don't want this as a common practice. I also don't want common practice to be to allow a "psycho" snake close to anyone's face for whatever reason. That's just foolish.
