Get one of these. It took my husband and I six years to get one. I don't know why we waited so long. They're not that hard to put in, and if your complex is managed you can probably get a maintenance person to install it for you!
For that much you can get this crazy looking one with a digital readout and tons of faucets.

Might also look at this style if you are renting. You just unscrew the shower head, screw on the extender, then the shower head goes on the other end of the extender. You can also loosen the fingernuts which lets it flop free. Makes it much easier to rinse out the shower when cleaning.
This shower head extension is one of the best thing's I've bought recently:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0064TYE9Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It makes me weep for all those years when I had to squat in the shower to get my shoulders and head wet.

Vanity On this, I negotiated with the seller since I didn't like the sinks/counter/mirrors that were included. They sold me the vanity only for a lesser price than advertised. I purchased the granite for the vanity/tub/privacy wall separately.
Shower Tiles are 12x24 and were purchased at Lowes, shower mosaic tile at HD
*Flooring tiles 6x24 were purchased at HD. Grout is "bone" color and also at Home Depot.
This and This.
I had this put in when we redid our master bath. It tells the temperature in a display mounted in the mirror and is powered by the water or batteries.

if you're a decent height person, replace your shower arm with this. It made my showers so much more comfortable.
http://www.amazon.com/LDR-520-2419CP-Shower-Flange/dp/B0058FQJNY/ref=sr_1_4?s=kitchen-bath&ie=UTF8&qid=1462266358&sr=1-4&keywords=shower+arm
In the meantime try this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0064TYE9Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_dp_T1_nS3DzbEQB03HM
I use it in my rental and it's great -- I'm 6'3" and I fit under it.
Why do people put up with this? Either get a detachable shower head or an extension arm.
If you live in an apartment just keep the original one so you can put it back on when you move out. You can usually install them without even using any tools.
From one tall person to another get one of these then a rain style showerhead.
It's a great feeling to stand up straight and have the water wash over all of you, front and back.
And if you can't change the arm in the wall for whatever reason, there's also extensions:
https://www.amazon.com/UA902-PK-Universal-Showering-Components-Adjustable/dp/B0064TYE9Y/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1483946125&sr=8-2&keywords=shower+extension
6'4" if anyone's curious. And here's the extender.
You can go to your local hardware store like Homo Depot and ask for a 3 way (diverter). An example is linked below.
You can also ask for a shower hand held. They can replace your shower head or some come with diverter. But more importantly they use the same sort of hose that you can attach your... attachment to.
Delta Shower Arm Diverter for Hand Shower, Chrome https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0064TXLHA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_J.GtDbYYZNJV7
Almost 6'3" here. One of the first renovations I've done in every place I've owned is raise the shower head in whatever shower I will be using. It's not really that big a deal if you can access the plumbing from the other side.
If you're renting or not that handy you can also used one of these for a quick fix.

You take the rain head off and put this in line. Then you can switch from one to the other :)
You might want to wrap threads in teflon tape but this is something pretty much anyone can do themselves.
Installed shower panel in basement bathroom. It's surprisingly well made for the money and works great. Wife also spends a lot more time in the shower now, I think it has to do with showerhead design...

If anyone is interested, you could do this yourself in 5 minutes for under $20.
You just need a new shower pipe like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000MNJJ66/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1404920039&sr=8-3&pi=QL40
I wonder if you could prevent it from getting quite as wet by adjusting the angle the shower sprays. We did a quick fix to our shower to make it more of a "rain shower" by adding an extension arm: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0064TYE9Y?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title
The water now splashes totally differently in our whole shower. Since it's strait down, the walls do not get nearly as wet. I didn't anticipate how big the change would be.

I used this exact thing when I lived in an old building with just a claw foot bathtub. The reviews aren't great but I really liked it. You just have to get used to being cold while you wash your hair!

This is what you need. Just get that old adhesive off, this comes with adhesive. I would use a level to make sure it is sloped down into the shower. Just slightly down, gravity will do the rest.

There's this shit called a shower arm. I'm 6'2 and live in a pretty small apartment as well. It cost me like 20$ max and made showers 100% better.

Dude, https://www.amazon.com/Swan-Shower-Extension-SCL5F10I-C-Unit/dp/B007UKJKFO
I use this adjustable shower extender arm. https://www.amazon.com/Extender-Rainfall-Adjustable-Extension-Straight/dp/B01M1DSC53/ref=as_li_ss_tl?crid=22HKZG8DNIHLA&keywords=shower+extender+arm&qid=1564757752&s=gateway&sprefix=shower+e,aps,154&sr=8-7&linkCode=ll1&tag=justtall65-20&linkId=fa56ccfcc00aba36238028878efe88c8&language=en_US
Super easy to install and remove if you're in a rental.
I'd recommend an S-pipe if you own the place. https://www.amazon.com/LDR-Industries-520-2419CP-Shower/dp/B0058FQJNY/ref=as_li_ss_tl?crid=22HKZG8DNIHLA&keywords=shower+extender+arm&qid=1564757302&s=gateway&sprefix=shower+e,aps,154&sr=8-17&linkCode=ll1&tag=justtall65-20&linkId=f5fbcd48af0583d4caf62557d2b0a8a9&language=en_US
I recommend a shower head like this, and/or an extension like this. I have a similar setup, and it's pretty awesome. Obviously not helpful for the road, but for 95% of the rest of life it's great.
Take the shower head. They should have the correct size. You can buy a three-adapter kit, as well, which covers pretty much all of them, I think.
https://www.amazon.com/All-Ball-End-Shower-Adapter/dp/B06XCD4X39
On the other hand, this is DIY, so replacing the shower arm is not that complicated. They are connected via a threaded connection in the wall and there are plenty of videos on youtube.
Get a shower head extender. Helps with the height, you won't lose any pressure, and it makes it easier to rinse out the tub after cleaning. I recommend this cheapo Delta; it's been good to me for years now.
[This](http://www.Shower.com/ Arm, Fivanus Universal Showering Components, 11"(Total Length) Adjustable Height Shower Head Arm Easy for Any Shower Angles. Chrome https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01CN6AMRO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_2U9Wzb72PKJQC) is a life saver
Shower sprays can work, but you'll occasionally run into issues like this where it doesn't completely wash out.
You should look into getting a small pressure washer, and a garden hose adapter for your shower arm. When I converted a spare bathroom to my washout station, I got one of these, and one of these, and hooked up my pressure washer to it, while still being able to attach the shower head.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000MNJJ66/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1376333469&sr=8-1&pi=SL75
Not OP but I've installed the same at every place I've rented in the last 5 years. They have longer ones at Home Depot/elsewhere on the net, but they're all called the same.
Edit: "S-pipe"
You can get plastic shower heads that have a hose that slips over the faucet: https://www.amazon.com/Body-Moods-7653700B-Portable-Shower/dp/B000PSBVFK/ They aren't great but they're OK in a pinch.
That thing is hideous looking. This is the one I have http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Ocean-Aluminum-SPA392M-Multi-functional/dp/B005Q4WAXA/ref=zg_bs_6810472011_3/187-8335381-9321505. Has digital water temperature and many other functions. There are similar models that are even cheaper than this one.
I bought a one piece one for my door
http://www.amazon.com/Clear-Shower-Bottom-Sweep-Glass/dp/B005CW450M/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_2_2
Will that work to replace both pieces?

I'm 6'4" and I use This to solve the problem. No more bending over in the shower. Unless you want to :)
Same problem here, I got a shower head extension, $20, does the job beautifully!

if you dont need the adustability, and just need it to be higher, this is a significantly less ugly version of that:
https://www.amazon.com/LDR-Industries-520-2419CP-Shower/dp/B0058FQJNY/
just to be clear, this replaces the downward facing shower arm where as the one OP linked attatches onto the end of the downward facing arm.
however, OPs is probably a safer install if you are renting.

A few months ago someone else on r/tall linked to this one and I got it. $17 and worth every penny!
I'm also 6' 5" and I put one of these extensions on for now until I remodel my shower.
I'm assuming this is a dorm with a shower in the room if not this advice might not apply unless you don't mind waiting to take a shower in a specific stall. As a tall person myself I know about this sort of thing. They make height extenders. Here is the one I use. It just screws on where the head is, I would recommend getting a bigger rain type shower head.

As a fellow 6'5, 200 pounder, may I suggest one of these? The installation is really easy and you don't have to duck down as far.
The 396 gph version isn't much more expensive. To keep from using too much ice, you could start by letting the pot rest on its own for a few minutes (try a hop stand!), then switch to cold tap water through the pump, then switch that out for ice water. The key is just maintaining a high differential between the wort and whatever you're cooling with.
Another option -- and this is a little off the wall -- is to use your shower. You could switch to a handheld shower, get a diverter, or get a showerhead with a splitter that would let you easily swap in your wort chiller. Handheld showers use a pretty standard 1/2" thread.
Shower Arm
Unscrew shower head, screw this on:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0064TYE9Y
screw shower head on to that.
If that's not enough, there are other options, or you can go with a hand held head on a flex hose.

Not at all, it just made me laugh. I recently put one of these in during my bathroom remodel and it works great: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005Q4WAXA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_t.-oDbG8AZEBH
It won't help THAT much, but there are these things.
I own my house but haven't wanted to remodel the bathroom yet, so I use one. It only adds 11" but it's better than nothing!
Fair warning, I have never used the device, it was just a quick search to illustrate a point. If this were me, I would find the local plumbing supply house where all the tradesmen go to buy plumbing parts, and ask them for an Offset Flange, or at least google offset flange and find one that is reviewed well. My question with using an offset flange is how to get the wax ring to work right, but probably wont bee too difficult.
Edit #1:
ALso, if you got something like this
https://www.amazon.com/LDR-520-2419CP-Shower-Flange/dp/B0058FQJNY/ref=sr_1_12_sspa?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1522868382&amp;sr=8-12-spons&amp;keywords=offset+flange&amp;psc=1
You might be able to raise and steer the head closer to the shower door and bring it higher.
Join the club my tall brethren.
Older houses were built for the generations before us. Better nutrition allowed us to grow taller than our parents and this has been going on for a few generations. I'm a builder and the ones I build come out of the ceiling or up around 6'4' depending on the installation. But we've also got to take the shorter of us into account too. So we use something like this http://www.amazon.com/UA902-PK-Universal-Showering-Components-Adjustable/dp/B0064TYE9Y/ref=sr_1_5/189-6573436-0688128?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1416201795&amp;sr=8-5&amp;keywords=Rainfall+Showerhead
Lots of different designs are available and if you shop around you can get what fits your needs pretty cheaply. I hate to say it but Walmart has a decent selection. They have to serve a lot of freaks so they're going to have a good selection that are designed differently. The majority have a pulse setting but they sell standard ones too.
Changing my shower arm , getting a water diverter , getting any rainfall shower head, combining it with a high pressure hose shower head and a suction cup shower bar so you don't have to drill . Every time I bathe I feel like I'm in a spa.
There are a couple different kinds and the threads might be different. Buy both and just try it.

What you're likely looking for is something like this. I used one similar to this decades ago when I had an old house without a shower. They're a compromise for sure but as you're a renter you're not going to be replacing a tub faucet as it difficult and expensive. Some have no way to attach the shower head to the tub wall and can only be used by hand but this one seems to have suction cup holder. They don't always work well however.

Listen to your better half. She's a smart girl. Rain shower head is a great thing. What prevents the drip is your shower valve. Get a decent one, and you should not have much to deal with.
The handhelds are nice. Had you thought about a shower panel? 10,000 to choose from, starting at around $100 or so. Here is one candidate:

This would work better
This is the same reason I hate EVERY shower. Buy one of these, it will be the best $20 bucks you'll ever spend. Take it with you when you travel.
I'd go with an s curve shower arm instead. I'm 6' 2" and put one on my shower and it works perfectly, the adjustable kind can and will leak eventually.
For a glorious showering experience, try this raincan showerhead. I don't know how lived without it now.
Plumber here, this should help a bit.

It would be similar to the multihead ones you see that have body sprayers, so you should be able to pull it off from a pressure perspective.

If you can't find wall mount that will stick to your tile, another option could be one of those adjustable shower arms that let you raise and lower the shower head.

Thanks for the suggestions! I just stumbled upon this video which explains that is a ball end shower arm from the 80's and linked to this set of 3 adapters for the 3 companies.

This other thread says I could/should instead replace the shower arm itself.
A true life changer. Or anything similar will do. It went from the showerhead being eye level to "Holy shit, is this what it is like to shower as an average person?"
Check this out.

Oh be warned... be warned. Such a thing does exist. When the time came to remodel my bathroom, I thought I would go all fancy like and install one of these gadgets. Got one of these with one of these to control the water. That part was not too bad. Would have been a simple connection to a classic shower head assembly.
Visions of a full decontamination shower danced through my head, however. Why not a shower head in the celling and additional heads in the wall? Next to hanging wall paper in the nursery, soldering together the bloody thing was one of the hardest challenges my 21 years of marriage survived. They show the easy part. What they don't show was the 'soldering template included for ease of installation', where you had to perfectly align four threaded pipes in a tangled copper Elder Sign. Many months later, I finally had mastered the copper pressure loop / nipple combo - everything measured out exactly and not leaking, with additional pressure loops to honor His Noodly Appendage . So far, the ward has keep the Deep Ones from ravaging my drywall. My sanity suffered greatly from dabbling this in forbidden lore.

There's a backlit 7 segment display to show the temp in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
I purchased a T fitting that allows you to use two shower heads, and switch the water between the two. It works great. It is universal, so it should work with most handheld showers.
