Best time for electrolysis?

I'm a transmasc woman who's been on low dose T for about 3 months now, which has been fantastic. I can’t imagine stopping. I am starting to notice new hair growth on my chin and face/increased speed of growth. This is not anything i wasnt expecting, and at this point the hair is only just starting to thicken in some places and is still pretty fine in others, even if there is more of it.

For me, facial hair is not something i desire for myself and my plan going in was to remove it as i became uncomfortable. My question is, should i wait before beginning electrolysis and give more time for more of it to grow in? I can definitely just wax/shave in the mean time because ive had to do that since before i started T. Or is it best to just start now bc itll be a long process anyway? Whats like the ideal type of hair for electrolysis? Does it need to be thicker to work better?
