And it's for this reason that many let cleaning the shower head slip their minds. If yours is clogged up, filled with limescale or other unsightly gunk, it's time for a deep clean.

Luckily, it can become nice and easy with this simple fool-proof (and mould-proof!) hack.

Gather your supplies

White vinegar
Large zip-lock bag or plastic bag
Rubber band or zip ties

What to do

Fill half of the bag with vinegar and place it over the shower head, making sure it’s submerged.
Secure with a rubber band or zip tie and leave overnight.
In the morning, remove the bag and run the shower for a couple of minutes before using. All the gunk that has built up over time will fall away!
