If it feels like the whole front of the bike shakes when you brake, you may have a loose headset. Grab the front wheel with one hand and the handlebar with the other. Try to shake them forwards and backward, if you feel a knocking back and forth then your headset is loose.
This may not be a problem, but if it is then working on the brakes directly won't help much!
