Can we talk showerheads please?

We built our house and my girls hate the Kohler Bancroft /Devenshire shower heads! I have removed the water sensor and still they are such a wide spray that they can't adequately wash the shampoo out of thier long hair. The pressure is good as my sons shower (on same wall/setup as daughter #1) is fantastic! He has a Kohler setup too but the spray head is different. Of course, It all had to be matchy matchy and the girls are in ORB. Does anyone have any recommendations? I see the Delta comes in a ORB finish. I am almost ready to do Chrome waterpik to quiet them down and get rinsed hair!

    Hi pr,
    Do much better to post on Discussion side. Better yet, ask over on the Bathroom forum. Good luck.

    This is amazing. Dh got it for me because I complained about my long curly hair too. There are reviews under the same product with different finishes on amazon. I have brushed nickel. I can't stand any other shower head now.

    Here is a link that might be useful: Showerhead

    I just want to add that I know how your daughters feel. The shorter you are, the wider the spray is when it hits you, so only a fraction of the water is hitting your head. It looks like Boop has come up with a solution for you - I've used similar ones that have that nozzle adjustment and they are great.

    I needed a new handheld shower head and found one that had spray nozzles in the center as well as the outside.

    Interesting . . .and I am LOLing at the link from Boop. I was confused by the cupcake soap and hoped maybe it "rained" cupcakes!

    Isnt that silly? I have no idea why they include a cupcake soap and forgot to ask my husband it it really came with it.

    I am 5'2" - probably not as short as your DD"s :) But not to tall either.

    Oh and we took out the water saving disk. I think some of the reviews people didnt do that. They make it easy to take out but in there so it complies with laws I think. I dont take a long shower either and is actually shorter now that I have a good showerhead to rinse my hair quickly.

    I have a Grohe hand held showerhead that is adjustable. When it is on the Jet setting, it is really strong. I use Massage and that gets the shampoo out just fine. My son occasionally showers here and I notice that he changes the setting. Since he no longer has a lot of hair, it's not an issue for him. I do recommend an adjustable showerhead.

    I had forgotten I had posted this! thank you for the recommendations. That is a doable fix I think.
