Welcome to the forum
I'm 6 weeks or so into it, and had the same result as you to start.
Now I've almost got it. Neck is much smoother, 1 tricky bit for me is the jaw line but considering how much I've learnt so far then I know it will come in time.
Practice makes perfect and I suspect that your face/bear also adapts to DE shaving in the 1st couple of months.
I'm trying out a various blades to see which give me the closest and most comfortable shave but already I can see that the right blade for you will have a bearing on the result.
