English term or phrase: get my hands down
I happened to read about Hair Volume in a weekly magazine and thought that it might help. After only 5-6 weeks I started to see a lot of new hair coming. - I have now taken Hair Volume for 6 months and "I can hardly get my hands down". I am not losing hair and even my for¬mer curls are coming back. I am just so happy!

agree  Philine Veldhuijsen: Met de handen in het haar zitten betekent in het NL dat je geen oplossing meer weet. Negatief dus. Ik zou het houden op het eerste voorstel: Ik kan er niet vanaf blijven.
