Here are some options. Take a shower and lightly smooth gel into you hair to keep a wavy look ,or cut it a little shorter than shoulder length. Also you could get a perm. or straighten the under side of your hair very lightly and the top very lightly as well so you would still have that wavy look......OR you can get a curler and straighten your hair the night before then curl it and run your fingers through it......and yeah that's all I can think of.Im a girl with long, thick, wavy frizzy hair need advice u other cool girls!! ?
I used to have the same problem and then I cut it with lots of layers and I LOVED IT!, I dont know if you already have layers but if you dont, you should deff. try them. as for the frizz, I use this cream called ION, curl defining styling creme. It helps form the waves better and it takes out all the frizz, and you just need to use a little bit when you get out of the shower and your hair is towel dryed. as for shampoo and conditioner, I would recommend the same one, ION curl defining. its a little white and green bottle and it really works.
You could start by using the anti-frizz shampoo/conditioner/products and see if that helps tame the wavyness or if not the easiest thing would be to get it cut. Ask them to thin it out (it's what i do to my hair) and it will take some weight of the waves and make them flow better without being like a hornets nest! Then get some layers maybe just to add to the sexiness :) Hope i helped.
Get it thinned out at a salon, that mite help with the unwanted volume. Try buying a few leve-in conditioners and anti-frizz products (frizz-ease and Garner fructise leve-in conditioner are my favorites). Then use a styling cream instead of gel or mousse because it keeps it smooth.
Don't defuse it because that only adds volume (instead of blow drying try letting it air dry while laying down or sitting against something, it alwayse makes my hair realy smooth)
hope i helped

its sensible to CUT IT :)
ummm, cut it.

Okay, this works for me. I have long dark-brown hair, with waves but not natural pretty and together waves, not too much frizz (I don't use heat products often), and texture that's a little dry and coarse.
I always shower at night. When my hair is wet to partially dry, I put it in:
A) French braids. You'll have to practice with this to get the perfect look for you. For example, if I braid my hair one certain way, I get a big ugly bump around my temple. To get the best waves, I don't do the from-the-forehead-braids. I make two ponytails and braid from by part.
For bigger and more subtle waves, (more glam/classic than funky/beachy), make two regular, not french braids, braiding tightly.
B) I put my hair in two pigtails, and then loop the tails back through the hair tie. You'll have two pigtail buns, and when you undo your hair in the morning, you'll have bouncy curls.
Leave your hair in these braids/buns overnight, or until dry. The drier the braids, the longer they'll hold and the more pronounced they'll be. The drier you let the buns get, the bouncier and curlier the curls will be.
Now, whatever porition my hair dries in, it'll stay that way all day long. For you, you might need more products (ie: curl serum, hairspray, scrunch spray, etc) In the morning, a few drops of shine serum spread between your palms and applied to you hair from the bottom up with enhance bounce, shine, take care of frizz, and make the look more polished.
Variations:
Once you have either curly or wavy hair, there are plenty of things you can do with it, so you don't always have the same hair.
Accessories: Ribbon headbands, regular headbands, scarfs. Two loy curly pigtails are very cute, and you can add ribbons to them. A low side-ponytail for either looks great. If you take a chunk of hair from the front of you head at your temple area, twist (or braid) it back, and pin it with bobby pins. This is especially pretty with decorated hair clips.
Beachy/toussled waves: While your hair is still slightly wet, take it out of the braids, apply scrunching spray/mouse, and separate strands with your fingers. The key to this look is that NOT every hair is in place. This look can also be converted to messy-rocker, depending on your clothes and accessories.
Vary your part for more dramatic hair and fun variation. The more dramatic your part is, the more dramatic your style.
Any type of bangs work with this style, except for Barbie bangs which have too much volume.
If the bottom of your hair is mega-volumous, and the roots are flat and limp, try backcombing, massaging your scalp with your fingertips and lifting hair at the roots, or before it dries putting in some volumizing spray at your roots.
And remember, when all else fails, curling irons can be used, though I suggest heated ionic curlers. the longer you leave the curlers in the bouncier and tighter the curls, and you can run your hands through the curls to make it less Shirly Temple. Heated curlers really don't take that long.
Good luck.
