One definition of take is "To participate in, undergo, or experience."
'Doing a shower' is an awkward phrase and better replaced by simply 'showering.'
'Making a shower' is actually the act of building the device we use to clean ourselves.
'Having a shower' is acceptable and means the same thing as 'taking a shower.' I think in this case, the difference is geographical. I believe it is more common to 'have a shower' in Britain and 'take a shower' in the US.
