How do you flatten short, thick, and poofy hair?

I have short hair (my bangs go down to my eyes), and it's very thick. I've had it thinned out though. My hair is normally rather poofy but I put a hat on after I shower to flatten it and it normally stays that way unless I start sweating or it gets really warm. But now that the temperature is getting warmer, I find that I have to wear a hat almost all the time to keep my hair from poofing out. I wash my hair everyday and use conditioner as well. I've tried gel, hair putty, hair spray, as well as 'Anti-Humdity' styling cream and none of them work. I'm not interested in getting my hair chemically treated so I'm wondering what possible solutions are there? I've heard of shampoo/conditioner combinations that were made to help poofy/frizzy hair, but how effective are they? I've also heard that straightening your hair helps with the problem, but I'd much rather keep that as a last option.

Thanks.

you should use this straightening balm my cousin (who is a guy) has hair the same as yours and he used everything he could think of i told him to use some of my straightening balm and it worked on his hair and now he loves it.

Buy these products from and BOOTS, Superdrug or chemist/drug stores

Then lightly spray this straightening spray on it:

then straighten it and add a tiny bit of gel.

NOT alot though as this makes you hair all goey and weights it down then when it dries it goes like straw so just a little.

Good Luck. :P
