To pluck or f*ck?

Ladies, please help!

Every evening I take to my tweezers and pluck any facial hairs which seem to grow during the evening (they only seem to start appearing each evening). The problem is, my boyfriend and I have reached the stage where we want to spend the night together (for practical reasons it'll be at his house) but how do I sort my 'little problem' out so he doesn't get the shock of his life and end up going to bed/waking up with the Bearded Lady? (well, tufty lady). I can exactly dissapear for 20 minutes with a mirror and tweezers nor can I not do anything and hope he doesn't notice. I know if it botheres him, he wouldn't be worth staying with, but it really bothers me!

Any practical suggestions would be very much appreciated. TIA x

Lock yourself in the bathroom, pretend you are having a poo. Or get him to pluck them for you as foreplay.

Get laser hair removal treatment. Each session works for about 2 months but not forever (although they'll tell you it will after 6 trearments...)

Electrolysis is the answer. I had laser hair removal for around 8 sessions (I'm very dark haired, pale skinned) and it didn't work but electrolysis has. Six months on I'm now only needing treatments every 3-4 weeks as the hairs have become softer and paler and many have disappeared altogether. The thick ones are a fraction of the size they were and will take a bit longer to get rid of altogether but it's been worth it, as I spent evenings plucking too and now that's a thing of the past.
