Do you have thick hair? If you do that's probably your problem. I have ethnic Arabic hair so I always have had issues with shaving. I just use lots of sensitive skin shaving gel and a quality razor with three blades. That has helped me the most. Also, I shave once every two days, because if you shave every day then it aggravates the skin.

A lot of shaving gel and a 4 blade razor, like the Schick Quattro for women work well. I have no more razor burn after switching my razor and loading up on the gel. I use skintimate.

Read about folliculitis. It is irritation / infection of hair follicles. Shaving upward, against the grain, irritates the hair follicles more and can worsen your problem. I know from first hand experience.
