There is a god Barry's gone!!!
Right a bit of a stupid question but the shower head of my shower is gone to shit. The water is flowing from everywhere out of the holes and out of the other direction into the air a bit. Basicly the shower head is fucked. Took it down to see if i could fix and nothing. Its a mira shower and its doing my head in.

Stupid question 1 are all shower heads compatitable with every shower. So if i buy a new shower head will anyone do in the first place or are a shower heads different for each type of shower.

Stupid question 2 is it fixable the front wont come off so i cant get into see if something got loose and if i can fix it without putting a hammer to it or completely breaking it. Any advice will do. New we should of got a trithon shower in the first place.
 
Just unscrew the shower head from the hose shouldnt be to tight and buy a new 1. Prices from 15 to 30 quid(B+Q or Homebase) all the heads have the same universal thread so no problem :) Simples

Shower hoses and heads are pretty much universal. Mira showers are a lot better than Triton hence the cost. Hose and head arond £20. Dont forget to put the rubber washers in each end of the hose.
 
The hose fitting is universal but....

How it fits to the riser (slidy holder on the wall) or wall holder is not. You might have to buy a shower head with riser/ wall bracket.

Or you could try cleaning the shower head with lemon juice or vinegar
