Ringworm or Fungal Infections of the Scalp
Fungal Infections: What to look for to help your clients? Ringworm is a fungal infection and has nothing to do with worms. When ringworm occurs on the scalp, it is referred to as Tinea capitis.
The stereotypical image is of clients chatting with their hairstylist and revealing details of their personal life, sharing private problems. But the truth is that sometimes, simply seeing their hair and scalp from your vantage point reveals embarrassing and even painful problems clients are reluctant to mention.
