Black Shower Heads
Sort by:
Black shower heads are fixed overhead shower heads finished in matt black rather than chrome.
Perfect for bathrooms, en-suites and wet rooms. Swapping the head is one of the quickest ways to update a shower, since most screw onto your existing arm with no tiling or plumbing work involved. The wide rain-style spray also covers more of your body at once, so you can stand comfortably underneath.
Bathroom Mountain offers black shower heads in matt black stainless steel, round and square, in 200mm, 300mm and 400mm. Most are slim-profile rain heads, with a premium square waterfall model that adds a sheet of water alongside the rain spray. Stainless steel is corrosion-resistant and holds its finish in a steamy bathroom. Fitting is usually a simple swap onto a standard shower arm, and rubbing the nozzles clear keeps the spray even.
As a leading UK bathroom retailer, Bathroom Mountain offers affordable and quality black shower heads backed by our Price Match Promise, fast next-day UK delivery options and an Excellent Trustpilot rating, so you can buy with confidence.
What Is A Black Shower Head?
A black shower head is a fixed overhead shower head finished in matt black rather than chrome. The ones on this page are made from stainless steel with a slim profile, designed to deliver a wide rain-style spray from a wall arm or ceiling arm above your shower.
What Size Black Shower Head Should I Buy For My Shower?
Black shower heads on this page come in 200mm, 300mm and 400mm. A 200mm head suits a compact enclosure or a shower over a bath, 300mm gives proper full-body coverage in a standard enclosure, and 400mm delivers the widest spray but needs a bigger enclosure and stronger water pressure to perform well.
Should I Choose A Round Or Square Black Shower Head?
Round and square black shower heads spray exactly the same way, so the choice comes down to what matches the rest of your bathroom. Square heads suit angular enclosures, square shower valves and modern tiling, while round heads sit better alongside curved valves, round basins and softer bathroom styles.
What Is A Waterfall Black Shower Head And Is It Worth It?
A waterfall shower head releases a wide sheet of water instead of individual jets, giving a heavier, more spa-like flow than a standard rain head. The premium square model in this range combines a waterfall function with a normal rain spray, so you can switch between the two.
Do Black Shower Heads Need Good Water Pressure To Work Properly?
Larger black shower heads spread water across far more nozzles, so pressure matters more on a 300mm or 400mm head than a 200mm one. A combi boiler or mains-pressure system usually feeds them without issue, while a low-pressure gravity-fed system may need a pump for an even spray.
Will A Black Shower Head Fit My Existing Shower Arm?
Most black shower heads use a standard threaded connection, so swapping out an old chrome head is often a straightforward job with no plumber needed. Check the thread size and how far your arm projects from the wall before ordering, particularly with a 400mm head.
How Do I Clean A Matt Black Shower Head?
Rub the rubber nozzles with your thumb every few weeks to clear limescale build-up, and wipe the face dry with a soft cloth after use in a hard water area. Use mild cleaners rather than scouring pads or bleach, which protects the matt black finish.
How to Choose Black Shower Heads for Your Bathroom?
To choose black shower heads for your bathroom, start by checking your enclosure size and water pressure, since those two things decide whether a 200mm, 300mm, or 400mm head will actually perform well. Then pick round or square to match your shower valve and fittings, and check the thread on your existing shower arm before ordering.
