Anyone with curly hair knows the love/hate relationship with their curls. Whether you've always loved your curls or it's taken you years to learn to deal with, you will definitely be able to relate to these curly hair struggles.

1. Water fixes everything

Frizz, bed-head, just a rough hair day? Hop in the shower and your hair is revived and brought back to life.

2. The amount of product you use in a day is unreal

You go through conditioner like none other, and the amount of products that your curls soak up on the daily is more than the average person probably uses in a week.

3. Your are unrecognizable with straight hair

Need to avoid the paparazzi, or maybe just don't want to talk to someone? Straighten your hair! Seriously, no one will recognize you because everyone always associates you with your curls; they'll be very thrown off by the new look.

4. You don't own a brush

Brushes are a no-go. Unless you are going for that mad-scientist look, put it away!

5. Humidity is NOT your friend

The humidity may make you reminisce of balmy, summer days, but it will make your hair crazy. It is to be avoided at all costs!

6. When someone says your hair looks better straight

Um, thanks, I guess? This definitely comes off as an insult if you normally wear your hair curly. It almost feels like a personal attack at who you are at your core. If you don't like my curls, then you don't like me!

7. You've grown to love your curls

In middle school, you may have killed your curls every day, but with time, you've learned how to style your curly hair. Now it's your favorite feature!

Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
