She's doing it in a way that you can tell she's really making an effort and that it's not normal for her. Her "shake" hand is barely outstretched, and her other hand is curving inward, suggesting a touch of fear or apprehension.
Or I might be reading too much into it. Coin toss.

Not at all, Jeph's gotten really good with body anguage, and as an OCD sufferer himself, gets it right with Hanners in this strip. The other hand "curving inward" as you put it actually looks more to me like it's against her chest, holding back her anxiety over extending her hand to a stranger. The slight stammer just emphasises it.

I hate how Marten keeps looking more and more depressed.... :psyduck:

I'm not going to infer anything more than that for the sake of this post being taken out of context. :-P

I suddenly saw an image in my head of Hannelore getting an order for a drink at COD and her hair going back to fluffy-curly all at once as the order was given.

EDIT: I'm waiting for Marten to snap and launch into an "I'm not one of your clients, Mom; so stop with the make-my-son-feel-like-shit behavior!".
Cammy:
Awww, poor Hanners! She's trying so hard to be accepted as normal too!

I adore Hanners in this. I think it's awesome that as the comic progresses, her hair poofs back up. :D
