How Can I Make My Curly Hair Look Good? I'm Sick Of Straightening!

So I have naturally curly/wavy hair.

It only looks good when it's still slightly wet and afterwards it just gets dry, gross, or frizzy. I want to be able to have it styled curly in updos and down, and anything else, but the only time I feel my hair ever looks good is straightened and it gets annoying straightening my hair all the time.

I've tried many products for frizz, hair gels, mousse, and anything else hair stylists suggest, but nothing works for me.

Any advice?
