I'm 14 with long curly hair... HELP ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!?

I am 14 and I have long curly brown hair...with random thin blonde highlights (they're natural highlights). It's ridiculously long and I don't want to handle it anymore. Maybe cutting it three inches. Idk. But whenever I leave it down it poofs up and is ugly. Any styling products? I also want to know how to work with it, like ponytails is all I do bcuz its so annoying...and half up half down occasionally. I let my conditioner soak in for like...ever and i rinse most of it out...but leave some in bcuz it helps with keeping it moisturized throughout the day. People say to not wash it everyday or get it wet...but idk how to do it unless i brush it out and get it wet!! Please somebody help!!!I'm 14 with long curly hair... HELP ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!?
cut some length off if you feel it's too long, but make sure when you do to get lots of layers so your hair doesn't poof up. I have long very curly frizzy hair and I get mine layered to keep it from poofing up.



As far as hair products, I use a mix of 50% leave in conditioner and 50% mousse, It adds enough definition in my hair (from the mousse) and the leave in conditioner helps keep it moisturized.



Try mixing this: http://www.tresemme.com/curl/products/fl



with a leave in conditioner also from the drugstore (like walmart) to get your hair looking beautiful and NOT poofy.



As far as hairstyles go, ask your stylist! Also, maybe try getting side swept bangs. I have side swept bangs and they look great with my curly hair,I just straighten them which takes like 5 seconds and i'm good to go.I'm 14 with long curly hair... HELP ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!?
