What can I use to scrunch curls in my hair?

Generally, a gel or spray gel product works best for scrunching curls. You can even try a product specifically developed for scrunching hair. To achieve this look, simply spray gel all over head, or work a regular gel evenly throughout hair. Squeeze curls, lifting them at the base and continue lifting and squeezing as the hair dries. Lifting is important because the moisture in the hair can weigh it down. What you are trying to do is lift the curl formation closer to the roots. which achieves that "scrunched" look.
