So, guys, how do you like your shower head? I find myself constantly re-adjusting it this year to a more downward angle. That way the water hits more of my back, I don't know how one of my roommates can stand such a horizontal level confuseddood;
i always point it to the most down facing position.
LOL FUCK YOU
I always put it as high (horizontal) as it can go because I am pretty tall.

Doesn't that result in water spraying all over the wall and right above the drain and hardly getting any water on you?
idk something close to 45° confuseddood;

nope. it doesn't go far enough to where it would do that. it just goes down at an angle. (not even straight down but towards the other end of the shower/me)

Oh. My shower head goes down deep, I guess.

Yes I think if I had a different shower head (and I am sure I have encountered others unlike my own) I would probably just put it in a place that's almost like the furthest down position of my shower head because it's nice there.

Aha! One of you people! Now I can interrogate you.
I'm very tall as well, but I don't find that the horizontal angle helps much with that... it's still blasting into my upper back/neck but without warming the rest of me. If I angle it downward it will hit the same area but then also the lower back and butt. Do you stand further away from the shower head or... idk, how does it work confuseddood;
I don't know anything about the spray, all of the walls/shower curtain are meant to contain water so I'm not concerned with getting them wet. Do you have a shower head that's more like a handle you can remove or something? huhdoodame;

This is how I feel about mine, except furthest up position. It is perfect.

Well, when I spray hot water on my shoulders, it rolls down my back and legs, warming my whole back. When I spray hot water on my lower back, it only rolls down my lower back and legs, leaving me pretty cold.
No, my showerhead is a regular shower head, but why would I waste water spraying it somewhere other than on my body?
I am 5'5 I stand wherever i want
i keep showerheads pointed either mostly downward or at like a 45 degree angle or something
i can reach them just fine :|
I remember I went to this hotel once, and it was really tacky and everything, but it had this great showerhead.
It pulsed on and off like a massage. Felt like fists pounding into my back.
Turns out it wasn't supposed to do that and it was actually defective and blew off when I tried to adjust it.

This.
My shower is WAY TOO FUCKING HOT. I don't know if it's because of the laundromat downstairs, but I can never get the temperature right. Ever.
So I just point the shower head down so I have enough distance from it. Then when I need to rinse, I hold my breath and take the burning plunge.
Feels good, man.

Well all of the water goes on my body... I'm not sure what you mean by spraying the walls, I thought you mean maybe the spray after it hit my skin confuseddood;

This is my impression of horizontal showering... minus the water pressure girl;
HOW DOES IT WORK

I think everybody else in my house showers this way because I have to move it from this position to where I put it.

That was responding to eeeeee saying she puts it as far down as possible.

okay, so imagine that guy turning the other way and standing closer to the shower...the water would be spraying right on his shoulders/neck, where he is the most sore and the heat feels best. Also my shower head is lower than that in relationship to my height. And the water pressure is much lower.
idk

Yeah, but I put it as far downwards as possible too... it's usually about 30-40 degrees from being perpendicular to the floor.
Hm, I guess... I have to crouch either way to be below the shower head so maybe that's why confuseddood;
downward
it doesn't reach my head so i have to bend slightly awdood;
i stick it up my vag

oh, you still do that? n_u
lmao i was WAITING for hensa to post in here about that so i could quote myself saying that from before
DOESN'T THIS DEPEND MORE ON YOUR HEIGHT AND THE SHOWER YOU'RE IN THAN ANY PREFERENCE FOR HORIZONTAL OR DOWNWARD SHOWERING
I MEAN IF I WAS 6'5 I THINK I WOULD PROBABLY SHOWER 'HORIZONTALLY' BUT SINCE MOST SHOWERHEADS (INCLUDING THE ONE IN MY CURRENT HOME) ARE USUALLY ABOVE ME I GUESS I SHOWER 'DOWNWARD'
BUT I STILL IDK
