    Put a plastic bag with white vinegar over the shower head. It would be better if you removed the head and soaked it in the vinegar, but you can do it installed, so long as you can keep the bag on the head and the head is immersed in the vinegar. Leave it on for 24 hours if you ca. The vinegar will dissolve the nasty mineral buildup.

    If you can take it off and soak it on baking soda and vinegar.. it will sizzle and pop because it is boiling all that stuff off ...but if you are like me you either can't get that high without the danger of falling. Frustrating!! After having severe feet problems l have to wait for my son to do this.. in my use to be life,, I added baking soda and vinegar in a large food bag...make sure the bag is large enough to have the room to put a rubber band around the shower head and have room to boil that yuck off... give it some time.. then remove the bag and turn on the shower to rinse out the shower head.. should work likeca charm.. if not might need to replace it.. hope it works..it should..
