Tips & Warnings
If you cannot remove the shower head, place the freezer bag into a plastic grocery bag. You can use the grocery bag to tie the lemon juice/vinegar bag in place.
If the shower head is metal, you might want to check it sooner to make sure the acid from the lemon juice or vinegar hasn't disturbed the metal plating.
