Forgive me for being in here with the ladies but I couldn't help but to answer this post.
My girl uses http://www.strengthofnature.com/productindex.asp just about any of the ones in the round jar will provide good moisture there the same I think just different colors. Then to lock the moisture in she uses the product we make called SeaSick. It's like a pomade to explain it best but it's all natural and provides a hold with the strength most would expect from gel once it has dried.
She likes to use it most after her press goes away to make a tight brushed back ponytail. She thought it woul make her hair curl up because SeaSick contains water but that was not the case. So now she uses it like once a day to maintain her ponytail.

for moisture adding some glycerine to your regimine would be helpful, particularly if you are in a humid climate (stear clear if you are in a dry, arid region). i'm partial to sta-so-fro, diluted with a bit of water.
i dont know how curly/coily your hair is, but you are more apt to see a subtle 'sheen' rather than the shine on bone straight hair. for that oils mixed in with my leave in tend to do the trick. I like Jamaican Mango & Lime oil, EVOO, and/or avocado.
kelli is right though, all hair is unique so some tinkering will be necessary

Everyone's hair is different and what works for some, may not work for you and vice versa.
i had to learn that my hair was dry and brittle because there was too much protein and not enough moisture. Some people's hair is very thirsty and some aren't. i learned i don't need alot of protein
right now i wash my hair with conditioner only like 2x week to get it moisturized. clarify as needed to remove build up and deep condition once a month if i feel it needs it.
currently i am bagging my whole head at night after i put some moisturizer in it. this helps to keep it soft and moist during the day. I may need to clarify and deep condition soon by the way my hair feels.
i currently use s-curl for moisture and aloe or coconut oil to seal.
These are a few of the ideas i picked up on this site and LHCF/ napputrality.com/motowngirl.com, etc.

I recently cut off all of my relaxed hair. My hair is now about 1'' long. My goal is to wear my own low cut w/o using chemicals. My problem is that my hair gets very dry throughout the day. What product can I buy to keep my natural curls moisturized, shiny yet nongreasy?
