How to control my curly hair??

i have extremely curly hair. very tight curls about the size of your pinkie (cork screw curls i think thats what it's called). my hair is a little more than shoulder length when it is wet but, it can go all the way up to my ears when it's dry! i hate my hair, and so i straighten it everyday. i don't want to have too do this anymore because i want healthy hair. i have broken and split ends. I would like my hair to be frizz free, and look as long as it does when it's wet. i cant seem to do this because my hair drys in like 5 minutes. how can i do this and not end up with a afro or big and poofy??.

I also have curly hair that shrinks and when I was younger I hated it but now I love it but when I didnt want it to shrink so bad at night after washing it i would put like 4 to 6 big fat braids and let it dry like that and it would be wavy instead of tight curly resulting in a longer look

How to control my curly hair??

you have a few options. You can have it chemically straightened. The split ends are from using a flat iron to straighten it every day. The best chemical straightner I know about is the japanese straightning system. It is costly, but it's amazing. Or... there are others that are less money. With hair as curly as you are describing, it's hard to get it poker straight. even if you have some of those curls relax , that may make things easier on you, but basically what I am suggesting is chemical straightner. And go to a professional do it. Do not attempt it yourself.
