when you apply your touch-ups, do you reapply it to your edges as well as your roots? 

if you do, that might be your problem. 
 
U say there's no growth in that area, so if you continuously touch up that same area then maybe its being over processed which could cause the "ceily" affect you're having.
 
However, on the other hand, if over processing is not the cause then lack of moisture is.
 
I like Bronner Bros. Oil Moisturizer with castor oil and aloe.  It doesn't have any harming or drying ingredients and it actually works!
 
Hope that Helps Some!

carolsdaughter.com has a product called Kizzi "Stay Put" Hair Pomade, it's absolutely amazing!
