If you want to run out and pick something up locally, I recommend trying LA Looks or Herbal essences gels (drugstore); Biotera gel and cream (Sally's Beauty Supply); Suave Naturals/vo5 conditioners (really cheap); Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose Condish (semi-cheap but super moisturizing, found at organics/specialty stores); red Cream of Nature shampoo (drugstore again); and L'oreal out of bed weightless texturizer (black tub, use under gel). These are all good things to try, and be sure to tinker around with amounts and how you use any products.
For specific products for your hair type you might also want to explore the forums at:

There you can find others with the same hair type and try out some of their favorite products.
Here are some basic tips for curly hair that you might find helpful:
*Try to find a stylist who knows how to work with curly hair. You can find ratings by region here: http://www.naturallycurly.com/curlsalons
*Don't shampoo every day.
*Comb conditioner through hair in the shower.
*Never use a brush on dry hair, only untangle when the hair is wet.
*Apply styling products to dripping wet hair. Scrunch or twirl hair to achieve desired shape.
*Use styling products suited for your hair type. Don鈥檛 know yours? http://www.naturallycurly.com/hair-types
*Avoid terrycloth towels; use microfiber or t-shirts instead.
*Air dry or use a diffuser with your blowdryer.
*Don't touch (or brush!) your hair while it鈥檚 drying.
*Once dry scrunch out any crunchy texture.
Lastly, it has made my hair so much better since I started the curly girl method! I used to almost never wear it down (it was a frizz/poof ball), but now I have pretty, shiny curls. ~:) It鈥檚 pretty radical鈥攏o sulfates (shampoo) or silicones鈥攂ut it鈥檚 so great for curly hair.

I have curly hair and the only way to make it look good is to wear it natural! I went through the times when I hated it and straightened it, but it never looked as good. So here's exactly what I do:
1. I use Herbal Essence Totally Twisted Shampoo %26amp; Conditioner. I shampoo every other day, and condition every day.
2. When it's damp, I run Garniar Fructis Anti-Humidity Cream through my hair.
3. Then I use a good amout of Herbal Essence Totally Twisted Mousse.
4. I srunch just barely.
5. Spray a few sprits of Herbal Essence Set Me Up Hairspray.
6. Let it air dry.
*Tip: Don't ever brush/comb it!!
BTW- A side split looks awesome!
Hope this helps!
i relle like to scrunch my hair when i don't straiten it...
its relle easy... all you got to do is wet your sisters hair... or if its just after she gets outta the shower thats perfect.. and while its still wet put ALOT of hair gell im her hair (i like L.A. Looks personaly) and let it shape its slef and dry like that... it should give her a ';wet'; look...
what ever you do DO NOT try to brush or comb out the gelll after it drys... that will just make her hair frizz and become RELLE poofy... to get the gell out shes gott brush it out in the shower...
Try to do her hair half way
