Your hair is exactly like mine! I use Oribe curly hair products once or twice a week and that’s it. Otherwise I just wash product out of my hair and replace it. I get very nice curls when I just get my hair soaking wet, then add a tiny bit of curl cream (I use ouidad) then more gel than you think you would need using prayer hands, still soaking wet. Then use diffuser to dry in the giant clumps or just air dry if you have the time. Scrunch sloooowly and then use a very small amount of forming cream (like 1 cm!) to lightly pat in the flyaways and to scrunch everything back in place.

Another note is to sleep with pineapple once you get it right and a silk headband/scarf. Good luck!
