Aye, question for the wise counsel

I cut my own hair
I wont pay a professional to cut my hair
My hair tends to be too "poofy"
Im kinda lookin for a kurt cobain type long to the chin, even length all around style
Hair is mostly straight just a tiny bit wavy The question; Is there a product to get my hair to lay down flattish without a "wet" look rather than poof up like a down comforter.

Aaannnd spin the wheel. Thanks peeps.

You might look into the "curly girl" method, don't worry about the name it's just what it started out being called in the 80-90s. It helps people with any texture besides stick straight hair tame the friz. It's been pretty helpful for me to allow my actual curls out without being a puff ball. There's a community driven Google doc that has the concepts and best products. It wouldn't surprise me if you actually have all wavy hair, many people find that once they stop using products that weigh down hair, their hair texture increases.
