Brilio.net - Shower head is one of the most overlooked items in the bathroom. In fact, regular use and continuous exposure to water make the shower head susceptible to the buildup of scale and moss. When scale and moss begin to cover the small holes in the shower head, the water flow that comes out is not only uneven but also polluted.

The buildup of scale is usually caused by the mineral content in the water, such as calcium and magnesium. Meanwhile, moss can grow due to high humidity and the warm environment in the bathroom. These two problems not only reduce the efficiency of the shower head, but also have the potential to be a source of bacteria and other microorganisms that can be carried by the water we use for bathing. As a result, the water that should clean the body can actually become dirty and unhygienic.

To maintain the cleanliness of the shower head , regular cleaning is highly recommended. Cleaning the shower head at least once a month can help prevent the buildup of scale and moss. If you are confused, you can use the technique from the netizen Instagram user @rumah.kamali in keeping the shower clean.

Through one of the uploaded videos, the netizen admitted to routinely cleaning the shower with simple ingredients found in the kitchen. Who would have thought, this simple ingredient can make the crust and moss on the inside of the shower completely disappear. In addition to making it smooth, the water produced is also cleaner.
