Don't use thread sealant tape between the connection of the hand held shower and hose. The rubber/nitrile washer is all that is needed. Most hand held shower units are made of plastic nowadays. You can split the plastic nut if you put extra material between the threads. (I just had one split the other day from normal use). The rule in plumbing is if there is a washer then don't use sealant. Typically the threads with washers are standard straight threads unlike tapered pipe threads. You can use sealant on tapered pipe threads. The 1/2" pipe thread coming out of the wall for the shower head is tapered pipe threads so that is where you can use the PTFE thread tape.
