IEFSHINY 14k Gold Initials Letter Charm Necklace

A necklace can be a great gift for a teen girl, but finding the right necklace for the young person in your life can be tricky — especially if she’s selective about what she wears.

One way to elevate a gift to the next level is to have it personalized to the recipient. You can have it engraved, but that can be pricey and time-consuming. Instead, look for a necklace that has the girl’s first initial. You’ll be able to choose the letter from A to Z and save the extra production time and expense.

From there, you’ll have many styles to choose from. You can opt for something simple and elegant like a heart or you can go with a novelty charm. There are necklace pendants shaped like characters from popular movies, TV shows and video games if your teen is obsessed with pop culture.

There are also necklaces that split into halves so that two friends can each wear one piece. That type of gift creates a special bond between two good friends.

• Chain length is an important consideration when you’re looking for a teen’s necklace. You’ll want to consider the teen’s height to make sure the pendant falls where you think it will. Many teen necklaces come with an extender that will give you a couple of inches of wiggle room.
• For a necklace that will hold up over time, you can’t go wrong with stainless steel. This will help protect the necklace against fading, rusting or discoloring the teen’s skin.
• Skin sensitivities are common when it comes to jewelry. A necklace that’s lead-free, nickel-free and hypoallergenic can help ensure you’re getting something that won’t irritate.
• If you’re giving the necklace as a gift, keep in mind that you’ll need a way to present it. If it comes in a box, check to make sure it will make a good presentation. Otherwise, you may need to purchase a separate gift box for presenting the necklace.
• A necklace that represents a passing fad may not be a long-lasting jewelry piece for your teen. Weigh the temporary excitement of a trendy piece against the many years the teen would wear something more timeless.
