I never comb my hair when it's wet or even damp. That is a recipe for breakage for me. I wash at night, making sure my hair is absolutely tangle-free before hopping in the shower. In the morning I gently finger-comb before putting it up in my day-after-washing cinnabun.
A few suggestions for you:
Never wash your hair with it flipped forward - it tangles it quite a bit to do this. Also, don't flip it forward to wrap in in a towel.
When rinsing out your hair, run your fingers carefully through the length while the water is running through to reduce the amount of hair crossing over itself - I've found this really helps.
When drying your hair, don't rub it together between two layers of towel. "Scrunch" it gently, instead.
As others here have often said - treat your hair like you would a piece of fine silk.
