Something heavier than this stuff?
Also I made another comment where I mentioned the full routine (guessing I wasn't done typing it when you posted) but I do comb it.
It's going to depend on what style you want! Most products are categorized by two parameters: hold and shine. For example, if you want high shine you're going to look at things like pomades and/or gels. Hair gel is usually high shine and high hold (think those punk rock spikes or the spiked up hair that was popular in the 90s) while things like fiber and cream can give you various types of hold with a low shine or matte look.
What kinds of products have you started looking at? I personally use the Gatsby Moving Rubber line (the green one) but a good beginner product is American Crew Fiber. It has good hold, matte finish, it's fairly cheap and can be found in any drug store.
I'm a fan of American Crew Fiber.

You only need to use a little bit & it lasts for ages.
Simple old American Crew Fiber will work for most hairstyles and hair types.
Not sure where you are buying your American Crew, but this will have to be free if its $10 cheaper than it is on Amazon.

I'm pretty sure what your asking for is impossible. I use this personally and it is the closest to that I've found.
I towel dry my hair so it is still a little damp, rub a little less than an olive size mound of product evenly on my fingers, apply evenly to hair, then blow dry into desired style. My hair feels different with product but I can still run my fingers through with no resistance. Not sticky unless you apply it while your hair is dry. Blow dry is absolutely crucial for hair to hold up.
You need some shape to your hair. It looks like your barber or stylist has just cut all of your hair to the same length every time. I would highly suggest using some sort of fiber or pomade product. You just need to use about a quarter-sized amount in your hair. There's no real method to it. Just work it into your hair spiking pieces here and there. Maybe twisting some sections for extra texture. The longer your hair is on top, the more you can do with it. You could go with either three of these and look a lot better.
Shorter Hair
Medium/Short Hair
Medium/Messy Hair
My suggestions for products are below.
This is what I use:

And I have a boar brush. And to be honest... to keep things in place i just use what I use in my hair:

I'm sure there's better stuff, but my beard is kinda' stiff and I am not in an area with lots of options. So let me know if you find something better! :)

Thanks for the feedback!
Currently I'm using the American Crew Fiber which is labeled as a creme, but it has more of a wax feel to me.
Here's a link to it on Amazon, but you might find a better deal on it elsewhere if you do choose to get it.

I like the haircut that you've attached. Also, I know how hard it is to style hair like yours so I am going to offer you a game changer. Use this [American Fiber - Hair styling creme] (https://www.amazon.com/American-Fiber-Pliable-Molding-Ounces/dp/B0007CXWC4/ref=sr_1_4_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1487719676&sr=8-4&keywords=mens+hair+styling+american+crew).
I use it every day and it works with very stiff hair that sticks up like yours. How do I know? Because I have the same kind of hair. I always hated my hair until i found styling creme. This is the best brand I've discovered so far
Also, as a tip, just in case you aren't sure of how to talk your barber about how to get that hairstyle, just ask for a #2 on the sides and back, straight cut up for the sides, and longer on the top and front.
Here's also a good reference for talking to your barber:
Art of Manliness - How to talk to your barber
Rub some of this through your hair after you shower + blow-dry (when your hair is still slightly damp).
Like a pomade?
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but where do you buy american crew fiber clay?? I'm looking on amazon and like theres one result :|
EDIT: Nvm... lol... is this it?
I'd say pick up a diffuser nozzle for your blow dryer to give you more control over your hair styling.
For product, it depends on your hair type. If you have thicker hair, you may want to try American Crew Fiber. It's high hold and a matte finish at a great price. If you have finer or medium hair (not thin), like me, I'd recommend the American Crew Forming Cream. It is medium hold and medium shine, but it's just slightly more shine than the fiber for my hair type (medium thickness, blond hair). The forming cream also allows for a more "natural" feel as if you layer it correctly, you can hardly tell it's there.
This stuff is pretty good
As far as the hairloss, just make due for now. Technology should get better over the next few years. There is also the option of beard transplants which is cheaper and less demanding than a hair transplant if you are a high norwood. Just exercise, eat right, and relax. You can also try minoxidil or Finasteride. The latter has some side effects though, so be wary.
I hate to sound like a meme, but... Sounds like you want American Crew Fiber. It's about half the price, and has the same high hold/low shine as the products you mentioned
