Going ATG on your upper lip is always difficult. It requires a very sharp razor, a very steady hand and really good control/technique. I would recommend that you take it very slow, stretch as much as possible and, if necessary use two hands to hold the razor. You want to go slow, with good control, because if the razor suddently jumps up, you'll cut yourself good.
