What am I doing wrong?

in Hair Type 3
Hi there,
I am trying the curly girl method on my 3a hair. I have the DVD of the method, and have tried to follow as best I can. As I understand it, I shouldn't rake my fingers through my hair for conditioning. And then, when I add the styling product, I should bend over and scrunch the product in my hair. I have tried this for two washes now, without much success. Scrunching the product in means that the bottom of my hair is in tight spirals, but the top part is not. I feel that in order to get an even distribution, I need to rake my products through my hair, but that messes up the curl clumps.
I would be really grateful for any advice anyone can give me.
Thanks
