Your creation of friction with the floor will allow you to "collect" electrons. You'll become negatively charged, and this static charge can discharge to a door knob. Most of us are familiar with the phenomenon. The results can be shocking.

you are positively charged and the comb is negatively charged since the electrons went from your hair to the comb and more electrons make an object more negative

If the comb becomes positively charged your hair will become negatively charged. Charge is conserved.

How can electricity be charged?

Charge is never created or destroyed. What we call "charging" an object, or discharging it, or collecting charge, is really just moving around some charge that was there all the time. Any material normally has equal amounts of positive and negative charges in the atoms that comprise it. In some materials, the electrons are rather loosely bound to their atoms, and some of them can be "stripped off" and moved to somewhere else. (That's what you do when you rub a balloon against a wool sweater, or scuff your shoes across the carpet.) Electrons carry negative electric charge. When electrons are moved to another place, then one place has more electrons than it should and appears negatively charged, and the other place has fewer than it should and appears positively charged.
