I'm not experienced enough to know ur hair type. Maybe someone else can chime in on that one. It just looks like u maybe need a little moisture. Ur curls r beautiful. Do u co wash? What conditioners do u use and do u wash ur hair w/ shampoo? A lot of people here cowash (only wash their hair w/ conditioner on a regular basis and use a mild shampoo when they have buildup). It just looks like u need moisture. U should read that curly girl book. They sell it on here at curlmart. Maybe ur parents can get it 4 u. It's kind of the bible 4 hair. I hope that helped some.
Curly hair needs lots of moisture. I do know that and less moisture = more frizz.
If u post this on the General forum u might get more help. They usually know more and they don't frequent the Transitioning forum.

Awww you have gorgeous hair! I was expecting something else. I would say your hair is a 3b (guys let me know if I'm wrong). It has a wavy pattern to it.

My daughter has similiar hair to yours and she washes it, applies fantasia gel or tresemme gel, finger combs it and let's it dry naturally. She doesn't mess with it once its dry because then it just gets poofy. I would go to the 3b forum and ask them how they do their hair. If they don't answer, go to the 4a forum and ask because that one is usually busy.

Hmmm, you have a very nice mop!

Very pretty hair, I'd say you are a 3a/b.
I think that the CG routine could work for you
I do a modified version. I agree with Jcurlady,
moisturizer sounds like a good idea. Trying leaving
a little bit in before applying your styling aid. Also,
watch your drying method. Don't rub your hair with
a towel. Gently scrunch with a microfiber towel
or air-dry. HTH
