i also have curly hair which i usually straighten for convenience. i looked forever for the perfect product that would help with your list above, and finally, a few months ago i found it! it's deepshine bio-marine therapy by rusk. it's in a teal bottle. it's about $20 a bottle and can only be bought at salons, i used it for months almost every day and it just ran out. but i swear it's the best. you apply it before using any heat products. my hair is never dry afterwards, always soft, no flaking or caking ever, won't make your hair greasy, and NO FRIZZIES!!!. before using it my hair would frizz up at almost anything, and now the only time that happens is when it starts raining. i highly reccomend it!!
