A classmate of mine had shingles in jr high school-- on her head. At least her parents said it was shingles. It got so bad it resulted in open, red, almost bloody-looking patches on her scalp. I remember it well because at one point after she’d started healing she got annoyed with me for not letting her borrow my hairbrush… I don’t remember her saying it was painful, though. Looking back, I wonder if it really was shingles?
