Quite a few of newer shower heads have a water saved screen in them , that lowers the pressure so you don't use as much water , sometimes you can take the shower head off and remove the filter. Sometimes it is just a mineral build up from hard water or sediment build up, that can be cleaned off or the screen can be replaced.
Newer shower heads have a restrictor in them where the head screws into the pipe. Unscrew the shower head from the pipe. Use a small screwdriver and it pops out. Screw the shower head back on. Use plumbers teflon tape on the threads of the pipe.
