I tend to get hangnails easily, so I am currently using a product called Core Serum from Dashing Diva. It is designed for thin and brittle nails, but since it is also effective in calming hangnails, I apply it every day. If you apply it once or twice to the edges and the backs of your nails and massage it in gently, it not only strengthens your nails but also prevents hangnails from forming anymore.
