How to get natural looking curly hair?

I use a hair gel that doesn't dry looking wet. If you have ANY natural wave in your hair, you can do this. After you wet your hair, towel-dry it. Then put a little gel on your hands, rub it around, bend over, and scrunch your hair repeatedly. Stand back up, and lightly rub the remaining gel from your palms onto the top of your head to reduce potential frizz. Wait for it to dry and see if you like it. Use a straightener or curler after it's dry to fix any little issues..
