Shaving rash: Probably folliculitis barbae (shaving rash) more commonly in people who have curly hair. Apply hair conditioner for a few minutes before shaving. Use a single blade razor (double blade razors cut the hairs too short, allowing them to grow in.) and shave in the direction the hair grows, do not pull the skin (or use an electric razor. Apply hydrogen peroxide after shaving.
