Black tips on Itoigowa? Fungus?

hey everyone! I could use some advice here. I’ve been noticing some black/white tips appear on my juniper. Has anyone experienced this before? I think it might be a fungus.

Hi @banemanor,
Looks like a bit of tip damage. Did you prune this year? I see a bit of juvenile growth, so whatever it is, looks like it is fighting back.

Hi Andy! Thank you for the response. I received this joy from a friend in August and have not pruned it since receiving it. Although the spots are appearing on the tips, they are also appearing in lower portions of the foliage.
