What can I put in my curly hair to make it soft, and not puffy?

I have curly frizzy hair that falls just below my shoulders. Since it is not too long, when I wear it curly it often looks very puffy. I put in a lot of gel to manage it, but I hate that look of hard-wet hair. I would LOVE to find a way to get my curly hair flatter, softer, and more natural looking. I find that if I take a shower at night, and sleep on it, i wake up with flatter hair..but I still need to put things in it to look nice, and then it ends up all hard and wet looking again. Please help

I would stop using the gel and switch to mousse. And I would use a flat iron...it leaves your hair soft %26amp; smooth.
