An American slang phrase, more popular in the mid-twentieth century than now, that means "to stop bothering me". For instance, "I'm going to get that man right out of my hair" means I'm going to get over that man so he won't bother me anymore (my appologies to the musical "South Pacific").

It means that you want someone to leave you alone and stop bothering you. For example, if an elderly lady was planting flowers in her garden, and two boys came over and pulled up all the roots, then one thing that the lady could yell rather than leave me alone would be: "Get out of my hair!" This term is an American slang phrase and was used more often in the mid-twentieth century than now.
