Shower head leaking leaking after shut off?

I have a new installation of a shower head, plumbing pipes and valve. Everything works well, no leakage, good pressure and no leakage when closing the handle. The problem comes later, after a few minutes, it will leak at about 1/3 open and for about 1-2 minutes. Then it shuts off for good until next shower. many thanks!!

  1. Under pressure water still in the pipe line... Normal - water will drop down out of that pipe until it runs dry. You could put a value shut on it. But the water will just end-up being in the pipe until next time. Still it should stop after a few minutes. Do you have a rain shower head? Those store a lot of water in there. I had one drip, drip until it was empty.
  2. i would think ,the amount of water still leaking , something inst right here, maybe your not shuting it down ,all the way re check your pipes.
