ok i got a problem, heres what i do to my hair first.

First i wash it, using shampoo and conditioner.
Next i towel dry it , until its damp.
Next i add some light gel all over my hair.
Then i add some wax all over.

Then i work some gel over the bangs to give it a curtain look. at the bangs i kind of grab the hair, smooth some gel into it (quite strong gel) pull it away from my hair, then hold my finger against my head and pull the hair so at the roots of the bangs it curves up, then goes down.

Problems im having are, after the day i washed my hair and the day after that, my hair is puffyish and lame, but the next day its sleek cool looking and just the way i want it, but the gel leaves residue and holds just a bit too much. i want my hair to look good all the time , and not go puffy, i also want the bangs to be held in position while allowing for movement, but not to have residue.

here are some products i looked at for stopping the puffyness, if someone could please tell me how i can work them into my normal washing and styling habbits to get the look i want i would really really be grateful, ok here they are:
