Hair problems!!

I'm having a problem:
My hair is naturally very thick, and slightly wavey, and I feel it Badly needs moisture. Tell me if I'm doing anything wrong...
I drench my hair in warm water, then apply Aussie Miracle Moisture to the scalp, after lathering, I leave for about 1 minute on my hair before washing it all out. Then I lightly towel dry my hair, let all the dirty water out from the sink, but leave a tiny bit in it and fill it up with fresh warm water. I put Aussie Mega conditioner (because thats all they had in the shop) in my hair and leave it for about 4-5 minutes. Then I wash out, aqueeze my hair dry a bit and then lightly towel dry again. I comb it through oncefrom back to front and leave it dry until it is completely dry, then I give it one last comb. When I put my hand through it, I cant feel any moisture, and my hair keeps clumping together so when I lift a couple of strands vertically up, I've got waivy hair resting on top of it, because it's so thick, please can anyone tell me If I need to try anything that would work better with my scalp, anything, please. It's really doing my head in, and my hair looks like a big 'cap' on my head and it stays clumpy for days. I shampoo about 3-4 times a week, should I shampoo less, my hairs about 4 inches long. Sorry about the large post, but I feel I cant describe it in more detail. Would 3 minute miracle be better? Is enough moisture getting to it????Help me.
shampoo at most 2 times a week

Sounds almost like there is too much shampoo here for your type hair too often. The oil from your scalp isn't having a chance to do its thing.
Perhaps try this: Shampoo only once a week and DON'T double the shampoo washings as most people do. Experiment with or without conditioner. By the second day with luck, the natural oil will have started out towards the ends. There is nothing like the Natural Oil when it comes to hair. Good Luck.

Don't brush it when it's dry. That's murder for curly hair.
