My grandson is seven, he has thick coarse carpet like hair, what and how should we manage his hair. He is the only one with this kind of hair in the family. Its pitch black has no style, no matter what we use, gel won't even hold his hair in place. Help.....

You need to keep his hair cut to a bald fade. The last thing you should do is put a bunch of grease and pomades in it. They will just make it gummy and it will collect dirt.
I also suggest 'blowing out' his hair. There are kits for men with thick hair that loosen the texture. There are also texturizers. I do however suggest you take him to have it done professionally. Trying the 'kitchen beautician route may have a bad outcome. Plus... at the shop they are the professionals and will be liable for mistakes.
Since he is 7... there is also the option of french braids, cornrows, and dreadlocks. My hair is locked and I love it. Just because it is thick and course doesn't mean there are no natural hair options. Check it out!

try a shorter style and thinning it a bit, use some strong hold gel
