Sometimes it depends on their personality some hamsters are very shy some are not.
Try petting your hamster slowly while feeding it some fruit, this will make your hamster more comfortable around you.

∙ 12y agoIf your hamster is afraid of you make sure to play with it alot. Make sure to hold it securely so it can't fall. If you don't play/hold a hamster for a while it can forget about you and think you will hurt it.

Do not hold them by their skin that seems like a scruff. It is okay but they do not like it. You should hold them in your hand right side up. They should be standing unless they choose not to.
