OK, back to business:

If you notice discolouration on your shower head (chalky white, green or brown), you've got some for of calcium, limescale or rust. While it's not a health risk, it means your shower head's performance is going to be sluggish, leaving you with a less than exciting shower experience. Here's what to do.

Take a plastic bag (I'm using a zippered bag but you could use a sandwich bag or produce bag), along with an elastic or tie wrap and some white vinegar (not rice vinegar, balsamic or cider).

Fill the bag half way with vinegar and secure it to the shower head, a-la getting a fish at the pet store. Leave it for 12 hours (24 if it's terrible) to soak and ensure that the entire shower head is immersed in vinegar. The vinegar will power through any limescale and you'll notice a big difference in your shower's performance.

OK, 12 hours has passed...carefully remove the bag and dump the vinegar down the drain. If you want to clean your drain in the process, dump some baking soda down the drain before pouring out the vinegar and your drain will get cleaned as well. Once the vinegar is emptied, run the shower for a minute and let the vinegar rinse off (the smell will go away too). Within minutes your shower will work wonderfully and you'll be so glad you tried this out!

My GROUT is so clean, right?! Want to learn how? Here's the how-to video:
