Well... it depends on what "Shingle" you'Re talking about heRe.

It's also known as the "Eton"; it's wheRe the haiR is tRimmed shoRt fRom the fRont of the head to the back of the neck. The "Shingle" cut was slicked down with a cuRl on each side of the face that coveRed the woman's eaRs.

technically they are a rash caused by herpes but they also are those gray/black things nailed to your roof that protects it from getting damaged.

Shingles is a rash caused by the herpes virus, it can lie dormant in your body for years and years. Stress can bring on a shingles attack. It will usually show up as a rash around your rib cage. It can be very painful. The pain will run through the nerve leading from your behind to the chest area, and around your chest. Sometimes you can feel pain, but see no rash. Most doctors say that you will only have an shingles attack once in your life, but I know people who tell me they have had more than one attack. It is caused by a virus so it cannnot be cured, but doctors can usually prescribe something for the pain. It usually lasts about two weeks. Some say it comes from chicken pox that you may have had as a child, and the virus staying in your system.

Shingles is a rash and its really gross. It hurts really bad so if you think you are gettingone go to the doctor as soon as you can.

There are two meanings for the word shingles. The more common one is the word for the little rectangluar tile-looking objects on your roof. The other is a rash caused by stress. It is bad for adults but if you are young it isn't a problem. If you have this see a doctor. I hope I helped! ♥ good luck

Shingles!!! They are what is on a roof...the little rectagular things.

They is different meanings for it the most common one is for the roof of your house. But also its an infection that you can get with makes you come out in little bumps. I had them when i was 12 or 13 and i pasted them on to my two best friends. So if you go to the doctors then can give you some cream, Because they can itch! with isnt very nice.

Shingles are like tiles that you put on your roof. I think they like protect your roof from water damage. I don't know what they do really.
