You should be able to do it single-handed, just do it really slowly in quarter-inch increments, being careful not to cut any hairs.

No not the empty lace, I fully understand that. What I'm talking about is when I cut my stock unit hairline I messed up and cut some of the hairs so there is a mil or two of lace in the front hairline that has very short hairs or even just knots in some spots and I'm wondering the best way to remove it. It seems general consensus is to cut the under side of the lace with a sharp blade being very careful not to knock any hairs but how do I hold the piece still? I've thought of tacking it to a cutting board or even gluing it to a plastic cutting board wetting the hair, combing it back and then trimming with an exacto blade but that would be cutting from the topside which doesn't seem recommended. Sorry if I'm not explaining well, I'm still very new to this.
