Top lip - wax or thread?

Have a bit of a 'tache going on. It's only noticeable in some lights, and the hairs are fairly fine, but I'd like to get rid of it before Christmas.

Any useful advice as to whether waxing or threading would be the most effective? I'm not too bothered by the pain aspect, I think I have a pretty high pain threshold!

Yes, a London zone 2 Superdrug. It's a special offer though - normally £5 apparently although the special offer has been running since before the summer!

Another vote for springy face torture thing. Hurts like hell the first few times (use it before you go to bed, any redness will be gone in the morning) but best thing ever!

I have the springy face torture thing, but it seems to snap the hairs off rather than pluck them out. Maybe my technique is wrong.

I do find that upper lip hairs are harder to pull out than eyebrow hairs.
