It sounds like winter injury. My Sunshine ligustrum had bare branches. Is that what yours is or is it Golden? The fact your leaves started to come back is a good sign. Go ahead and prune out the dead wood. Give it a light application of general fertilizer if you haven't already. Water if rain is not sufficient.
