How to treat my hair?

I had the same problem before I decided to cut my hair short. Problem was because my hair was very thick, so very hard to manage. I don't know of any home treatments you can use, but I will tell you the shampoo and conditioner that I use, if you have it where you live, because it really has worked for me! I use Herbal Essences for smooth and sleek hair, it is in a bright pink bottle... you could do a search online for it to see what I mean... but it is the only shampoo that calms my hair down, and gets rid of the frizz that makes it big and bushy. I also use a wax/gel in my hair, which gives you a natural look and no sticky mess, it is the VO5 brand. It comes in a little tub, and is very soft, all you do is rub some in your hand, and then run it through your hair, it works really well, and gives you smooth sleek natural hair, that does not go hard or sticky, you would not know it was in your hair. Anyway hope this helps... I am from UK and that is what I can get for me, I don't know where you are, but perhaps you may find something the same as we have.
