Why does my bathroom sink have no pressure?

Except now the same bathroom with said shower has a sink that no longer has any water pressure. I.e, it just trickles water, both from the hot and cold valves (If I shut off the cold valve, it will trickle if I move it to hot, and it will turn off when I switch it to cold– and vice versa with hot)
