Nothing beats a warm shower to start the day, or to wrap up a long one. From having the right soap through to the correct nozzles and water pressure, the experience can be greatly enhanced with the right shower head. With so many options to choose from, it can be difficult to know where to start if you’re on the lookout for a brand-new or replacement shower head. This guide covers the most popular types on the market today, as well as which specific options have proven their merit with our customers this year.

The Various Types of Shower Heads

There are multiple types of in-market shower heads to choose from. Some are more popular for their practical nature, while others are selected for their aesthetic appeal. Some of the most common types include detachable (adjustable), water-saving, rain, outdoor, high-pressure, waterfall, filtered and double shower heads. You’ll find different subtypes within each of these as well, typically based on their shape and what they’re made of. The options we’ll be covering next touch on this a little more closely, focusing on specific choices that can be found in many homes around South Africa these days.
