The shower head attachment is installed in a shower head feed line The shower head attachment comprises a perforated tube, an expandable bladder, and a release valve. The release valve is installed between the perforated tube and the shower head. The perforated tube is contained within the expandable bladder. Water that flows through perforations of the perforated tube is stored within the expandable bladder. When the release valve is closed and the shower valve is opened, the pressure of the hot water line of the residential plumbing system forces cooled stored within the hot water line into the expandable bladder. The release valve is opened enabling the continued flow hot water into the perforated tube where the hot water mixes with the cooled water creating a more temperate water temperature that is released through the shower head.
