I am even newer at this than you, on week two of DE shaving. I am thoroughly enjoying shaving now, but I believe I am looking at this in a totally different way. I never enjoyed shaving before, but now I enjoy everything about it - the preparation, the shave itself, the look and feel of the razor, creating a lather with brush and soap, and on and on. I am not so much comparing the end result, although I would classify most of my shaves as DFS already. I like that I can customize my shaving experience with different blades. I get a sense of satisfaction and well being when I finish a shave that I never experienced before. And the skin on my face feels better than ever. I just finished shaving and already I look forward to shaving tomorrow. Weird - never would have believed I would say such a thing...
I have been telling my friends about this, and I don't think they get it. Perhaps this style of shaving isn't for everyone - there is a reason companies are making bank selling expensive cartridges and electric razors - the quick and easy way is always going to be popular.
Being newer than you, I am not in a position to make recommendations; but I hope you stick with it!
