The Simple Fix

If your showerhead has been clogged up for a while and only manages to produce a weak trickle, it’s time to take action. The best part? You don’t need to buy an expensive cleaner or replace the whole thing. The solution is quick, cheap, and right there in your kitchen. With this clever hack, your showerhead will be back to full power in just about an hour with no scrubbing required. All you’ll need: a plastic bag, some vinegar, and baking soda. Here’s how it works:

How To Do It

Take a sturdy plastic bag and pour in a generous splash of vinegar along with a couple of spoons of baking soda. The mixture will bubble up straight away, and that is exactly what you want. Gently slip the bag over your showerhead so it’s completely submerged in the solution. Secure it tightly with a rubber band, zip tie, or piece of string. Got a detachable showerhead? Even better, you can just place the head directly into the bag. Let it soak for around an hour. The vinegar dissolves stubborn limescale while the baking soda tackles dirt and bacteria. Afterwards, rinse everything thoroughly with clean water and your showerhead will shine like new. Ready to give it a try? Your bathroom will feel fresher instantly!
