You could make sure it is dry after shampooing and put it in one big ponytail braid. This should give a natural wave without the poofy problem. If you want a little more curl, you could lightly mist the braid with hair styling spray.How do i keep my curly hair less poofy and still very health?
Do NOT comb or brush your hair when it's dry. Do that when it's wet. After you comb it put some mousse in it, and then put in some curl creme.

It will make your hair look amazing.
Biolage makes a great gelee for this problem - definitely wash your hair with a very moisturing straightening shampoo and conditioner - biolage is very good for this and then use the gelee and use a pick to comb it - don't brush it - that just creates more poof.
