Kangha, a wooden comb is an essential part of the Sikh dress, to keep the hair tidy and clean, mainly to maintain hygiene. Gurus ordered sikhs to treat kesh with utmost respect. |

secondly having a wooden kangha makes it a bit more exclusive - plastic combs are a dime a dozen...!!!

Yes Gyani ji, as you said - wood being non conductive and doesnt produce static electricity like for example plastic.
Personally, I feel soft wood on body (including skull below head hair) has good effect on blood circulation. |
