Abstract: In some embodiments an apparatus to hold shower curtains is disclosed. The apparatus includes a shower bar and mounting brackets. The shower bar may be made of a flexible material that has a rectangular cross section and a rounded upper edge. The rectangular cross section enables the shower curtains to lay flat on the bar. The flexible material may enable the shower bar to be flexed during installation or to absorb contact from an object. The shower bar may come in pieces that are connectable to one another. The shower bar may be curved to substantially follow an arc of a bath tub. The mounting brackets may be removably connected to mounting surfaces. The mounting brackets may include suction cups. Other embodiments are otherwise disclosed herein.
