I have had those super fine thin cuts show up well after the shave as well. They are just so shallow and clean they aren't easily spotted (or felt) at first. You will get past the scratching/nicking stage eventually. Reading others journals and the more experienced guys commenting on mine indicates we all went through that stage when starting out.
I often wonder if we have a harder learning curve since we have to be mostly self taught with just advice and videos to go by, compared to the straight shave heyday where all the guys and barbers did it, and a father could teach a son in person from an early age.
