Is there any way to remove the hair (which is just beneath the

Nope and nope. Anything you do to remove it will probably make the
blemish even more noticeable. The "sort of catches the light"
problems might "sort of never be noticed by anyone else". If you do
decide to pick it out, be prepared to spot sand and add another coat
if it does become more objectionable. If you put down gloss poly and
the hair is in a trafficked area, the scuffs and scratches of every
day living will quickly make it less noticeable.

Easiest solution would be to sprinkle hairs all over the table and then
put on another coat of poly. Let em think it's the textured finish you
were going for.

Use and exacto knife to remove the hair. Buff that spot with a clean
clothe. Using the same product and a very tiny brush, build up the
crevice via as many coats as necessary. Once level, and cured, a little
buffing should make it tolerable; maybe flawless. Good luck.
