Please help :(

The photos with shorter hair are about a year ago and the photos with long hair are now. I am the only person in my family with curly hair and have no idea how to take care of it.

Over the past year as it has grown out it has become completely out of control. Any day that isn’t a wash day my hair is frizzy, puffy, and DRY. My curl pattern is also a complete mess any day besides wash day. I used to use Olaplex because my hair was bleached but stopped getting balayages and now I use Kristin Ess because my old hair dresser recommended it but I feel like it must be what is ruining my hair. I also use Miss Jessie’s pillow soft curls and usually sleep in a bonnet.

Please tell me what products/routines might be good for my hair that are affordable, preferably ones that I can get in person 🥲 THANK YOUUU
