When combing your hair you transfer electrons from your hair onto the comb is your hair then positively or negatively charged how about the comb?
In the way you say it, I would have to say since you're the one that's transferring the electrons, your hair is positively charged which would make the comb preferably negative.
If a neutral metal comb is held near an object with a negative charge the comb will become charged by?
