You should not be seeing such lines at all. That sounds like you are putting WAY too much pressure on the blade!

Also, i'd suggest a hot shower or bath before you shave if you get the chance- it softens the skin and opens the pores, making shaving more comfortable and more effective. It also makes it easier.

What sort of razor did you previously shave with?
