An improved showerhead assembly is provided for use with handheld showerheads. The handheld showerhead includes an elongate handle having a rear side with a cavity, and a front face including one or more nozzles for spraying water. In addition, the showerhead assembly includes a mount for affixing to the male threaded pipe found in a shower stall. The mount includes a ball which engages with the cavity so as to allow rotatable and secure attachment of the handheld showerhead to the mount. The ball may include a preliminary alignment chamber and a locking chamber, and the cavity may include a tension pin which projects into both of these chambers so as to provide further support for installation of the handheld showerhead to the mount. In addition, a spring-button tab mechanism may be utilized for managing the engagement and disengagement of the ball with the cavity.
