 I was wondering if anyone had some advice on what tools are out there that would help me create my own hair and clothes for my characters? They can be free or paid tools.

 what you need for clothing is a modeller (can do certain types of hair too)

there is 100's of them  free all the way too need a mortgage ;-)

blender and wings are free but most of the expensive ones have a months trail USE it

find one that suits YOU

 Silo is another modeller that is reasonably priced.  As heddheld suggested give some a try and find one that suits you both in price and functionality.

 Depending on what version of Poser you are using there are other tools that might be need to get your creations to work in Poser (I am assuming Pose as this is a Poser forum). 

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.

I actually use wings3d. I have used blender but find wings to be more user friendly. I have made a few of my own props (swords, houses, and some simple clothing) I have heard of making hair in programs like wings and then using the cloth room to simulate hair movement in animations. Would this be something you would recommend? If so, is there some kind of tutorial or advice on how to make hair look natural using this method?
