I'd suggest using a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Cream of nature is a good brand. Aussie Moist is another one. Try those brands and see if that helps any. You can usually find them at wal-mart. Hope this helps.

Also, get EQ Mango butter and some jojoba oil and massage into your hair.  That should work good for you after you wash and condition.

First of all Malumouse you do not have bad hair!  I see where you're coming from, because I also thought I was cursed with "bad" hair before I began to take care of it correctly.  I completely agree with the ladies above.  Stay away from the gels, and look toward moisturizers.  Try a light oil like Jojoba, or a non greasy creme like Cantu Shea Butter.
