Alex Pettyfer Hair V2

For some reason the last version of this thread didn't post. I'm reposting it with the urls of the images that were in there originally.

So I just got my hair cut for the first time in over four years, and really one of the few hairstyles that I think would look good on me (super short military buzzcuts and emoish hair are out of the question) is something like this.

My hair's already about the same color and length as his, I'm just wondering what kinds of products I can use to make my hair all curly and well defined and beautiful like his. I've already tried a mousse and one of those salt "day at the beach" sprays, and so far neither of them are doing much at all. Oh and in a perfect world, if you could recommend products that aren't ridiculously overpriced stuff I can only get at designer stores, that would be awesome, but if that stuff's really the only product that'll do the trick, I'll take it. Any ideas? My apologies in advance if I seem overly demanding or something. I really do appreciate any help I can get.
