As you probably know by now, I cut my braids off. It was just time. I have had braids since I was in high school. And I just felt like it was time to do something different. Everyone I know has said I look younger. For the first couple of days I felt different. If you want to know why I really cut my braids go to my website CarmeloAnthony.com. There is a video of me getting my haircut.

The crazy part is just before I cut my hair I opened a barbershop here in Denver, called Studio 15. I was thinking about calling it Melo's, but I like the sound of Studio 15. I went to the barbershop every Friday as a kid and I always wanted to open my own place. So know I have a fresh new look and my own barbershop.
