Razor burn can affect any person who shaves part of their body. If you’ve ever had a red rash after shaving, you were likely experiencing razor burn.
Razor burn can also cause:
- tenderness
- a burning or hot sensation
- itchiness
- small red bumps
You can experience these symptoms anywhere you shave, such as your face, legs, underarms, or bikini area. Razor burn is usually temporary and will go away with time.
