Fortunately, it is possible to solve this problem with some DIY tricks which, in addition to cleaning the surface of the shower head, allow us to unclog the holes and return to having optimal water pressure.
To clean a fixed shower head:
Fill a plastic bag halfway with vinegar.
Place the shower head in the plastic bag and secure it with a tie.
Leave the shower head to soak overnight.
The next morning, remove the bag and scrub the shower head with a toothbrush.
Finally, open the tap and let the water run for a few minutes.
Vinegar is one of the most effective ingredients for eliminating mineral residues which are the main cause of clogging of shower head holes.
To clean a removable shower head:
Remove it from its place and place it under running water, but upside down (the holes must face the water jet).
Rinse until surface residues of limescale and dirt are removed.
Soak the shower head in a container full of vinegar overnight.
