I use hair removal cream, and i swear by it.
I was cautious at first since i wasnt keen on any sort of side effectsdown there eg itching burning etc
but there was none at all! i used the one for sensitive skin and the aloe vera in it leaves ya all smoooooth and soft :] [the sensitive skin one isnt so harsh either]
so yea, hair removal cream = smooth, soft, no shadow ;D

You can't, not by shaving anyway. As the other poster said, you might try waxing. If you've ever had your eyebrows waxed, think about what that felt like and then imagine the same sensation spread over a larger and even more sensitive area. You might want to stick it out with the shadow =P
I'd be cautious if you do use a depilatory cream or spray and make sure you read the label COMPLETELY before doing so. Many of those products, if not all of them, aren't recommended for use on sensitive skin such as your face or "down there" and will actually cause mild chemical burns on your skin if you use them on those spots. Good luck =]

It's normal.
Maybe try a bikini wax instead of shaving? Caution though, this will hurt really badly. They also have those sprays that spray away hair, but I am not sure if these could irritate down there or what.
Best wishes,
