Summer is the perfect season to play with layering your jewelry, so untangle your necklaces and embrace what's set to be a huge trend by piling them on.
The downside to this fun way to style your accessories is that many necklaces can become intertwined and move over time, often not sitting at the desired length. Luckily, there's a quick fix.
If you've been struggling to stack your necklaces, one woman (@tabithamy) unveiled a tip on TikTok to prevent the issue, calling it the "most game-changing jewelry hack ever."
The video has gone viral, gaining over 33,000 likes and 290,000 views since being shared on May 5.
In it, the TikToker says: "I can't believe I did not know this before. I need to share with you. Right, so you know when you wanna layer necklaces, and they get tangled, and they don't sit at the right length? It's not the look that we're going for."
She then asked, "Have I been living under wrong? Is this something people already knew?" as she began demonstrating the hack.
She explained, "If you undo both the necklaces, and then you attach the one necklace to the other, and then with the other side, you attach this to the other necklace."
The result is a layered necklace look that can be worn all day without the risk of getting caught.
It's also a great way to control and change the length of your jewelry, as she showed how "you can then adjust the necklace to whatever length you want. If I want this one longer, I can have this one longer."
She went on to ask viewers of the video, "Are you seeing this? Did everyone know this was a thing? Because I did not, and I feel like my life has just, like, insanely improved. It's amazing."
What Do the Comments Say?
The hack wasn't just game-changing for the woman who shared it, as the comments section was full of messages from jewelry lovers grateful for her post and the fact she didn't 'gatekeep' the hack.
One user wrote, "Thank you for your discovery and for sharing it to us who desperately needed this."
Another person couldn't believe they hadn't thought of it before, adding that they felt, "TikTok teaches me things that were right in front of me."
"I think you just changed my life omg," said one commenter.
"Wait stop this is so genius omg," a TikToker wrote, to which the original poster replied: "RIGHT?!?!!"
