Find the Perfect Contemporary Style Shower Head
Lather up in luxury with a designer shower head. The first step in selecting your new shower head is deciding what style you want.
Rain shower heads are wider, gentler, and typically mounted directly over your head. If you want to control where the water goes, a slide bar or
handheld shower head allows you to rinse with ease and can make cleaning your shower a breeze. Many shower heads also have different settings to control the temperature, intensity or type of spray, giving you a completely customizable shower experience.

How to choose the best shower heads for you
Before you shop for
shower heads online, take the time to find the best ideas and inspiration from around the web. If you are shopping for a replacement shower head, what is your current shower system set up and what are your preferences?
Water pressure is an important consideration: do you like invigorating high pressure showerheads or relaxing rain shower heads, also called low flow shower heads? Both can have the same water flow rate, but high-pressure shower heads are more concentrated in a smaller size that produces a stronger spray. Rainfall shower heads or ceiling shower heads can come in larger sizes -- some up to 16 inches in diameter -- with a more balanced water spray. 12 inch shower heads are another popular size for waterfall shower heads. Multi-function shower heads allow you to have multiple jet spray settings so you can enjoy a massaging shower or a softer aerated spray when the time calls for it.
Don't forget about the handheld shower
If you want another water outlet in addition to your wall-mounted or ceiling mounted shower head, you can install a hand held shower heads with a hose as well. This dual shower head set with a hose will give you the flexibility to clean your body as well as your hair. Just don't forget to buy a two-way valve to route the water from the shower head to the handheld shower. If you have a tub, you can complete your trim kit by adding a bathtub spout to your shower set, and in this case, you will need a 3-way shower valve to complete your shower faucet combo set.
Shower heads for any budget
After you have taken the time to find what is the best shower head for you from a functional point of view, you can compare the prices of shower heads before you buy. Simple chrome or stainless steel shower heads with an arm should be more affordable than a complete shower set or system. For more luxurious shower options, you can opt for a more modern color or finish, like matte black shower heads, brushed nickel shower heads, bronze shower heads, or brass shower heads. Once you know whether you want to buy shower heads on sale or find high-end options, you're on your way to having a brand new shower experience.
