First of all you need a good haircut, not with layers this makes it more poofy.

Wash your hair with an anit-frizz or dry damaged hair shampoo and conditioner.Don't wash hair often.

Invest in a styling products either hair serum, leave in hair moisturizer, mousse and hairspray.

Invest in some hair straightners like GHD but don't use these frequently.

If you leave your hair to dry naturally it will be a big frizzy puff this is what happens to mine unless it put products on and wear it curly.

First comb hair when wet to detangle then When blowdrying the hair put mousse and serum in hair use a large hard bristle round brush this tames and straightens use hairdryer which has a valve type thing which directs the air one way this helps to smooth the hairshaft now hold the hair wrapped in the brush pulling down with the hairdryer above blowing down also dry from the roots down to the tip.

When dry spray hairspray onto a comb and comb through hair to tame flyaway ends using somthing like gel on heavy products just makes it look stiff and greasy.

When sleeping wrap your hair in a satin scarf or a pair of tights to stop it becoming a ball of fluff when you get up.

Trim hair regulary, 6-8 weeks and treat with conditioning treatment once a month.

I know you don't want to hear this but you need a good cut by a professional! That is the number one step in getting your hair to behave. A good stylist can help combat your "big hair" problems. Once you get the foundation of a good cut, the rest should be pretty easy for you to maintain. Some styling products such as frizz serums or some hair gel should really help your hair problems. But don't think for a second that any styling cream or gel in the world will work with out getting a good haircut. Go see a professional and get a cut that is suited for your hair type. Also invest in good flat iron if you want silky, straight, managable hair. Good luck!

First of all, don't brush your hair while it is wet!!! It sounds like you need a really good cut; it seems that you don't have a style. You say that going to a salon is "stupid stuff", but don't you wonder why your hair looks so bad??? You should explore styling products for your type of hair and "waste your money" by going to a salon so that you will learn how to work with your hair. If you really don't want to go, then you really don't care about how you look.

I have the exact same problem, its like as soon as your hair dries, it turns into a poofy triangle. I hate it, so I wear my hair up all the time. I decided to buy a blue bottle of Sunsilk, and on the front it reads "For hair that gets poofy as it dries," and that is the problem with your hair too I guess, so just go out and buy the shampoo and conditioner of it. It might not work on the first time, but it should after a bit. It works for me.

What you need to do is wash it condition it, and put in a leave in moisturizer, maybe like Neutragena Triple moisture. Then comb it with a comb, not a brush. Then braid it up in medium to small braids. Let it air dry. Once dry, take it out of the braids, and then finger comb it, and if you wish, flat iron it. The brush will just make it puffier. Never brush puffy hair!

Trust me as much as your stressing it would be worth your money to go to a salon and let them help you and i'm sure after you left you would think it was everything but a stupid idea. Your hair probably needs thinned out with a good conditioning treatment.

I have the same problem, and have had many people try to control my hair, but nothing works. The only thing that has worked (for me, anyway) is Sunsilk Anti-Poof Hair Creme. You can buy it anywhere, grocery store, drug store or a hair store, and it will make your hair lay down. It's in a blue bottle, and it doesn't cost a whole lot. Good luck!
