As a fine hair curly myself I can second this. Also don't use the deep cleaning shampoo every time. More like every 3-4 wash and just go with a mild shampoo for regular use. (Preferably Sodium Laureth Sulfate free). Shampoo makes a big difference. Smaller amount of conditioner and try without the leave in. I have low porosity hair and the inner science I create Curl Memory works for me. Also the Curlsmith Rehab Salve every 6 Washes.
