Snap!
I've used a little coconut on it to train it. That helps.
Mine's just long enough to get trapped in my jeans waistband.
I'm considering getting it chopped though ... because what looked good at 20 or 30 or 40 doesn't look so good now. I spend half my life with my hair in bunches.

Coconut oil Argan oil is alright too.

It's a bugger to style though. Even superhold gel can't get to grips with it.

You'll have to go to an Afro hairstylist Mort.
They'd know how to cut it and deal with it.

I tried an argan oil shampoo I've never had so much frizz in my entire life, husband helpfully named me chrystal tips for the weekend. Only he didn't say tips

Jojoba's very good ... I'd forgotten about that one as coconut oil and argan oil seems to be the new thing.

I believer that last one I suggested is Jojoba, Evening Primrose PLUS Coconut oil.
If that don't help, I think I'd give up.

Hey, perhaps Father Christmas could bring you some to try?
Go on Mort, write him a letter.
