What can I do about hair growing on my areola?

I don't want to shave it because I don't want to irritate my breasts. Plucking it and waxing seems painful and I HATE pain so that's not an option for me.
I don't know how I began growing the hairs but I definitely do not want them. How can I get rid of them?

I pull mine with tweezers, it hurt a little at first but now it doesn't. Even though my bf says he doesn't care I would prefer not to have them there. I am considering getting laser hair removal as it's a small area so shouldn't cost too much!

I have this hair too. Everything says to pluck it once out of shower so it just kind of slips out. Sorry I know this wasn't one if your options I decided to share it anyway
