Cowlicks and Fluffiness

Like, most people here I have a problem with my hair.
I guess I do have it better than some people, in the fact I have very thick hair. The only problem is, I'm half indian, and half chinese, but I look more Indian, thus I don't have smaller features of an Asian but I do have the asian hair. Doesn't look good at all. Not only do I have "Porcupine" hair, where it fluffs out and sticks instead of just sticking straight to the head like cacausion hair. On top of that, I have a cowlick on the crown. I know relaxers can be used to help out with the "fluff" situation, but what about cowlicks? If I use elctrolosis to get rid of it, wont I have a big bald spot where hair should be? Just wondering what you guys know that can help me with this cowlick and fluffy hair

Thanks, I appreciate the info. I've heard relaxers can weaken them to the point they don't stick up as much. Not sure whether that's true or not
