A hard reset will re-lock your handset but it will be post update.

The update changes the ROM, this is what the hard reset returns you to. The de-cert method unlocks your phone in RAM which will be reset by a hard reset.

and is it safe to unlock it without backing up the IPSM (which i can't do post update) ?

Unlocking is safe but will delete all your personalisations/software from the phone. Custom homescreens/sounds etc will be lost, same as any hard reset.

You will need these to reload on your phone after the unlock.

Backing up IPSM is irrelevant to these as IPSM also saves the lock/unlock status.

So you need on your PC all your homescreens and apps ready to reinstall after the unlock.
