The dark green discoloration after shaving, known as pseudofolliculitis barbae or razor burn, can be caused by coarse or curly hair, ingrown hairs, or razor burn; to alleviate this issue, try using a sharp razor, shaving in the direction of hair growth, applying a soothing aftershave balm, exfoliating your skin regularly, and considering alternative hair removal methods like trimming or depilatory creams.
