<human>: Hi. I had a beard of 6 weeks until tonight. I then decided to shave it off because I noticed dandruff like skin flakes on and under the beard. When I finished shaving I noticed big patches of red, burn like marks on the whole of the beard area. I am just wondering what could be wrong? Im positive it did not happen because of the shaving.
