veil comb: plastic vs metal

Hi ladies,

I'm seeing veils with plastic combs, and metal combs.  I'm wondering what people found to be the functional differences between the two. 

I'm guessing that with plastic combs typically having wider "teeth", they grip your hair and stay in place better?

Thank you!

    <div>Plastic is the best. Honestly it is so much more comfortable and your hair doesnt get stuck in it like the metal.</div>

    The only issue with plastic combs is that they could possibly break causing them not to hold as well in your hair.  IMO, I preferred the metal combs.

    And FWIW, my veil had a metal comb and it slipped in easily, stayed put and then when it was time to remove it, it came out easily and did not get stuck or pull my hair.
