Use white vinegar to clean a shower head. Fill a quart baggie 2/3 full with vinegar and use a rubber band to hold the baggie onto the shower head. Let stand for an hour or two and remove the bag. Turn on the shower to clean out the loosened residue. You can use a scrub brush to loosen any stubborn residue.
