Entangled

I finally managed to get a hair typing photo with minimal manipulation-no combing or finger combing. Since my hair takes a while to dry that way, it's was a feat for me. I was excited anticipating finally seeing whether or not I'm a wavy. What is going on?

Nope. I see waves but no pattern. I have worms on my head. I know my hair isn't pin straight, for I've had the puffy-straight effect with wet combed hair that I've heard wavies and curlies complain about from before they knew. I keep hoping I'll have some sort of Cinderella experience where I join the leagues of people with beautiful, recognizable textures. Instead, I find irregular waves and random straight patches that looks as strange as my puffy, combed straight hair with flipping ends (seen elsewhere in that album).
I'm not distraught, but I do have some level of frustration with my texture. Am I doing something wrong? I comb when I just want my hair to dry faster and don't care about the texture. I finger comb some days, and other days I use my tangle teezer. I've done cone free and super cone. I've tried co-washing and WCC and CWC and am starting a sulfate free shampoo. None of those things really seem to make a noticeable difference in texture. Does anyone else experience this? At least if I can't fix this I can commiserate, them toast to updos. I just want confidence to wear my hair down, for braidwaves fall flat and curls are pretty but tangly and labor-intensive.
