Thanks for the response Firefox7275! Your answers are always so informative!
I went and figured out my other hair properties (and learned a whole lot, I might add). Assuming I did everything correctly, I think my hair is low elasticity and low porosity. The dew points here at this time of the year seem to be in high 50s to low 60s range and humidity tends to be in the mid 60s to high 70s (although the humidity is slightly lower right now since there were thunderstorms yesterday, knocking a bunch of the humidity out).
I think I will start by clarifying just in case build up is the issue. I don't think I've clarified for awhile, so it can't hurt.
ETA: I forgot to add in that my density would be medium.
Also, I always put leave-in in when my hair is dripping wet.
Now that I have clarified, it does feel a bit better, so part of the issue was probably build up. Feel free to impart your wisdom to me though! I would still appreciate it!
