I have really thick hair and I know what you mean about it coming out poofy! It's a pain! So scrunch my hair I use just a regular mousse. Apply it evenly to all your hair(roots too!) right after you get out of the shower. Clip it up until it starts to dry a little, then take it down and run your fingers through it a little bit (but not too much!). That's always the hard part for me, I end up playing with it too much and it messes up. If you cant stop yourself from doing that then just put it pack up in a clip until just before you leave. Hope this helps!

You can straighten it, you can buy a decent straightener for about 20 or so dollars. Also make sure you brush it right after you get out of the shower. You can try a new shampoo made especially for smoothing and straightening too (maybe Thermasilk). Also Thermasilk has a "straight and smooth" cream that you can put in your hair, they also have something like that that is a spray but it is more of a detangler. Oh and if you dont want to do that you can try Frizz-ease by John Frieda (they sell that at target or walmart or w/e).
But i would mainly try straightening it... and if you do try straightening it DON'T FORGET THE BACK OF YOUR HAIR.
Last thing, if you can't get a straigtener, then try putting in straightening or smoothing cream before you blow dry and when you blow dry try attaching a diffuser to your blow dryer. ( if you don't know what a diffuser is look it up online or ask your hairdresser)
Any of these methods should work. Now its up to you to decide which one!
Hope I helped!

what i used to use to scrunch my hair was Tresemae Mousse my hair didnt come out poofy it came out nice also you could use Garnier Fructis Smoothing Milk i use that to scrunch my hair all the time it takes out the frizz
here are some tips on scrunching your hair

after you take a shower dry your hair with a towel
throw your head down (so your hair is pointing to the floor)
what ever you are using to scrunch your hair rub it on your palms and run your fingers through your hair
cup your hand and squeeze your hair
clip your hair up in a bun and keep it like that for about 10 minutes and then just take it out
hope that helps if you need anything else drop one in my inbox ♥
