Where can I get that tool to unscrew that shower head?
 
Where can I get that tool to unscrew that shower head? The manager of
my apartment building probaly installed these screws to avoid people
stealing their shower heads. Thanks in advance!

It appears to have a pin in the center, do a search for security bits. There
are many variations, yours appears to be a security Torx or an allen head.

I think you're right. They sell those too of course. I have two sets
in the red rubberish tip holder, with a whole variety of tips, but I
don't remember where I bought either.

I'm sure Google is such a good friend. I find things so much faster
