I was visiting a milonga in another town far away. As I scanned the room I saw a woman looking in my direction. I gave her my best cabeceo. She responded by raising her eyebrows, pointing at herself, and mouthing the words "who me?"It's a somewhat natural response in certain situations, but it's not effective. It just prolongs the process unnecessarily.
Don't use "who me?" as a response to a cabeceo. A better response is to either accept the cabeceo with a smile and a nod, or reject the cabeceo by looking away. Please feel free to share your experiences and insights on this topic. Click on the comment link above.

The counterpart to the cabeceo is the "mirada". This post explains it very clearly (https://www.facebook.com/terpsichoral.tangoaddict/posts/674804352612968).
