"When you do things that are aligned with your spiritual gifts, God takes care of it." WOW! Those words resonated so LOUDLY within me. Congratulations again gorgeous! Can't wait for you to experience all the blessings, which will enable you to further bless others.
Thank you Ebony! Can't wait to get together with you!
It's so true, those words stuck with me as well. She is just a beautiful soul who happens to also be talented in what she loves to do. I'm so happy for her.
your spirit is beautiful as well Ebony!
Amen
+Ebony Clark Amen to that!

That's a great testimony!
Congrats Mo, you deserve it just because it's yours!!
God is GOOD and FAITHFUL.
I live in NYC and can't wait to see you !
+tsion diamandis don't even worry about it girl. Malice? the name says it all.... I already REBUKED that DIABLO in the name of YESHUA.
Have a blessed one hun. 😄
Hey Mo!
I'm also a "hair" vlogger here on you tuber, and a current student at the Aveda Insititue, although a part time one. I entered school last September, and its been a seriously challenging (almost) 15 months! My class and I are nearly in the Gamma phase with our projected date of graduation being in January of 2015. As I get closer to it, I've found that its been more and more difficult for me to feel cheerful about coming in, staying late and taking clients on the clinic floor - I miss my daughter at night, and a normal schedule, but your video reminded me of how truly blessed I've been in having this experience, and how fortunate I am to have taken this journey with Aveda. I too, waited years for this opportunity - sometimes it was a matter of saving money, other times it was about my daughter being too young and in other instances it just felt like the wrong time. When I finally began it felt like I'd never be able to start a day of class without choking up a little, and yet, somewhere towards the end of it I've grown impatient and maybe even a bit jaded. Seeing another woman like yourself, discuss dreams that are definitely familiar, with the same enthusiasm and emotion that I felt in the beginning, has put a lot back into perspective for me.
As a native New Yorker, I can tell you that I saw many schools before choosing and Aveda is the best! Nothing else compares in terms of education, as we get two correlating curriculums - New York State's and Aveda's. Its like a two for one! You're in for a world of studying, but it'll be so worth it - and since you're already familiar with the products it'll be that much more fun because it'll be like stepping into a "family" that you're obviously already a part of! Not to mention, we as the night students, sometimes get the day time teachers as subs, and they're all wonderful, good people. You'll love Kevin! And Ayesha taught me some tricks with blowdrying that have become invaluable to me! We have Jess, Miss Colette and Shiri at night, all fantastic, so I hope you get a chance to work with them too!!
One of my classmates posted this video in a private Facebook group that we keep in touch with, and we know you're coming and we're excited to meet you! I've since subscribed to your channel and I'm looking forward to giving you a hug and welcoming you too! My class begins at 5:45pm, 45 minutes after you'll have clocked out, but many of us come early to set up, so I hope to see you soon! How cool is it that we're getting a real youtube star in our school!
Buy lots of black pants! LOL You'll need them! And definitely a better hair dryer too! The Solano in our kits is nice, but does nothing in the way of curly and textured hair! We've all moved up to Twin Turbo as we got onto the floor, and they've been so much better!
Good luck! And congrats! Wishing you a good time in school! With love, Siobhan, your fellow student!
Hey fellow Tiger! Your story is so very inspirational to me especially the part about you planning and saving for your big move and the things you sacrificed to get to where you are. Taking notes...
+That IT Girl I'm taking notes too. Love her aura and yes, she is a true inspiration.
I am so thrilled and happy for you. You are truly deserving for everything that comes your way for everything that you have done to help, teach, and inspire others. Congratulations!!!
So excited that Aveda is reaching out to talented people like you who have a passion for natural hair textures. Congratulations, and many blessings!
"When you do things that are aligned with your spiritual gifts, God takes care of it." LOVE it!! Thanks so much for this
Congratulations, Mo! I look forward to you sharing your journey with us!
Aveda is an awesome family.,Your going to love the Aveda institute and the classes. I attended Aveda to become an Asthetician. The experience will change your spirit and blend your passions to a higher level. I'm super excited for you and welcome to NYC!
You hit the nail on the head "when you so things aligned with you calling, he shows you there are no limits". New careers are scary, but you are where you should be. Aveda has.the wisdom to put out quality products and to recognize quality people. You will do excellent because it is ordained!!!
To those on the outside, they will never understand this RUclips community. we watch our friends "in our heads" reach such milestones and we are literally proud like we're family. When in fact we are famly. We're all like distant cousins who enjoy natural hair. lol I am so happy for you Mo. You inspire so many and I wish you nothing but the best.
xoxo
What a wonderful testimony!!! Young lady, you inspire me! Continue to Go4thandconquer!!! Blessings
You are getting your license in cosmetology holy crap I am so happy for you! You will earn tons of money and I really want you to do my hair so much!
You go, Mo!!! You're going after your calling and that is awesome. You have such a beautiful sprit that shines through and you're going to bless a lot more people through your story.
thanks to Mo, I had the best twist out of my hair's existence. I've been natural since 2006 and after watching one of your tutorials, I had the best twist out of my life. My hair was so full. I didn't have to use a pick comb. The volume blew me away. You are awesome and yes, God said it was time for you to use your talent and I'm so glad that you are. May He continue to guide you and may you remain blessed because YOU are a blessing.
Thank you for making me cry lol I'm so happy for you. Glad your doing something you love !!!
lol, I'm not a crier, but I felt that stinging in my nose # so happy for her
So proud of you! I was screaming, "Check out Mo'!", when I saw you on Windy Williams LOL
ohmygosh, I started crying along there with you!! I definitely understand that feeling of getting what you have been dreaming about since forever and pinching yourself to make sure it's not a dream 😄!! Keep elevating and God bless you!!
Congratulations! You are amazingly talented, refreshingly humble, and just plain real. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Black Girls Rock! Congratulations!
Wait a minute...you aren't already a cosmetologist? Wow! I had no idea! If you have that much skill and knowledge now, you will be UNSTOPPABLE in the industry once you get through school and obtain your license! Congrats, good luck and God bless!
Inspirational doesn't even begin to cover it! This goes to show it is not ok to just keep surviving but to also ensure we become alive someday! We need to learn to not only get education from institutions but to educate ourselves with so many resources out the rest! Thanks Mo for reminding us! Good luck!
Congratulations Mo, I went through the same program, I cried! GOD is so Gracious and Awesome! I was Humbled, to be in my purpose too. I finished the program and now I'm a licensed Cosmetology Manager!! Don't stop, Mo keep going no matter how hard it gets. It was such a Fun experience for me, and the girls in school were so fun and sweet. Aveda is a great company that Loves the earth, and because I'm a tree hugger type person, I loved going to school every day and learning all Aveda had to offer. GOD paid for the whole program and my manager's license too, because the Lord knew I did not have the money! HE worked it out I am So Grateful to be in my purpose! I wanted my own salon and in order to do that I had to have my manager's license. it was my passion and still is! And now I'm going to get my Bachelor's Degree in Business! We're like like on the same purposeful journey, but in different Directions. Hope to see you soon. I was crying with you when you were talking about your experience, because I went through the same thing. I am So Happy for you, Mo! Remember don't stop Aveda is hard & the best because the company is great and they schools don't play. Everything single thing they teach you and you experience is for a reason that GOD wants You To Learn! I graduated 2 years ago and if get on the Dean's list you get $1, 000! So ask and see they still offer that incentive! GOD Bless You Mo and take care of yourself!! Congratulations You Are Going To Make It!
All I can say is GO GIRL!! Your such an inspiration! Congratulations and God bless you.
I always thought you were a license hairstylist before ! WOW, amazing
Mo, so happy and proud of you! Thank you for all you do for the natural woman out there and you are a wonderful example to our girls, so that they see that natural hair is beautiful.
so so soooooooo proud of you Mo!!!! You will continue to go far because of your humility. Much more success to you😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
How can u dislike this video😒..there's 6 haters out there
Ikr! It's 9 now smh
I thought the same thing. SMH
+Kim D. no its 10.... really .. I don't think it really matters ...she's living her dream
baylin10 when I watched it it was 6😒
+Kim D. right how can you hate this, I proud of her, she is always a very positive person, and helpful, she is a pretty young lady I wish her well in all she do. I like her and too me why watch her if you don't like her? she has a few ghost followers as well they see her work, but refuse to hit the like button, well I'm hitting it right now I like Ms. MO
My Dear Sister, I promise you I cried when I saw this video. I'm so proud of you and just like many others have said, The Best Is Yet To Come! I just feel like this is only the tip of the iceberg for you. You also inspired me giving me hope that as I continue to seek ye first His kingdom then all those good things will be added. Continue to be encouraged and stay blessed and beautiful. God Bless you.
CONGRATULATIONS to you Mo❣ Good things & success come to those who work for them, as you have. The sacrifices were well worth it. Your education has served you well. You're very articulate, professional & an inspirational role model. It's always so refreshing to see black women of your caliber! Your strong faith & positive demeanor attract positive blessings your way. Now you're on to even more success! Very happy for you, I wish you well❣
I am so Happy for you that I am shouting and praising God for you. To start off in life doing one thing (the ordinary, expected, permissive Will of God) and then turn to accept the plan God had for you (the purposeful, pre-ordained, Will of God), was a true turning point not just for you but for all of us that follow you! Continue to walk the preordained path that God spoke into your life. Congratulations Mo! I'll continue to follow your journey.
So happy for you!! You deserve it! You know more about hair without a license than some with the license. Hair is truly a gift of yours and no one can take it away!!! Love ya!
Congratulations to you diva!!!!! Your love for healthy hair showed from day one. I'm continuing to pray for your success.
Mo, I love your story and have been following you for almost a year! I am a degreed professional but have had a burning passion for cosmetology for a very long time-- I just never pursued it. I finally made a decision to enroll this December but, due to some unexpected financial obligations, I will be pushing my date back to next year. I was up last night, heavy-hearted that another year would have to pass before I could walk into my dream but after watching your video today, and hearing how much preparation you did before making this big move, it encouraged me. It calmed my anxiety and reminded me that "when you do things that are aligned with your spiritual gifts, God takes care of it". He will redeem the lost time and if I do my part He is faithful to do His.
I love your tutorials and would've never guessed that you were not licensed...oh what a gift you already have!! I believe in you, I'm happy for you, and I appreciate your transparency in telling us more about your journey. God bless you...
Girl, the tears I'm shedding are tears of happiness for a beautiful, talented, woman of color who is being blessed in abundance. I am so very proud and happy for you. I'll definitely have to look you up on my next visit to NY. God bless and keep going lady. You totally deserve it.
Congratulations, Mo!!!...You're an inspiration, and thank you for allowing us to share in your journey! :-)
Oh Mo!!! I'm proud of you! Good Luck on your move. And like they say, if your dreams don't scare you, they aren't big enough! You'll do great things in this industry because its your passion! It will never feel like work.
This was so awesome! Congrats lady! I'm soooo happy for you!!
Ms. MO!!!!! I am a fairly new transitioner for 6 mo now and never thought that I would be able to style my own hair. I had AN INSTINCT to go natural and found your wonderful videos here. And, let me say, I am very grateful! I suffer from "heat damage" from getting my hair pressed for most of my life and I am PARANOID to blow dry my hair, let alone--flat iron. I will cut off the dead ends once I hit the one year mark. Wellllllll, I have seen TONS of videos from the most known utubers but I NEVER was moved enough to subscribe. Your story here moved me to tears, truly. I feel that God has PROTECTION around you and will continue to send blessings your way because YOU LOVE HIM. I pray that you TRUST him in ALL that you do and lean not on your own understanding. I pray that you always remember James 4:8 no matter how famous you become. I have great FAITH that you have all intentions of doing this, just saying...... ;) Well, I am def going to try Aveda's heat protectant once I decide to flat iron, only for trimming.......MAY GOD'S COMFORTER CONTINUE TO GUIDE YOU EACH STEP OF YOUR WAY....KEEP SMILING!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS FYI-I too have just began my DREAM JOB of teaching secondary students and am so glad that I stopped putting it off each year JUST LIKE YOU. Be good to U....Please let us know when you are taking in clients in your shop......
You are an inspiration and yes, following your heart and natural skills is supported by the universe! Congratulations and keep on rocking lady! You are beautiful inside and out.
Amen! God does take care of it. Your testimony is awesome and encouraging! I need to make some faith moves as well. Thank you for sharing Mo!
I love when you say that we should align ourselves with our gifts and it all works out. We live in so much fear of all that we can accomplish. Congratulations on rising, stepping out, and having faith in God. This is so needed!
Mo, you are such a inspiration I can't express it enough. Change is scary but you are destined for greatness, keep following your dreams! xo
Congratulations! I am a girl from KS and you just inspired me! You are a true example of anything possible; thanks for sharing your story. And, also I am hair type 3a/3b so I appreciate you; hair products, and techniques! You Rock! God bless you!
Mo.....Congrats to you! You are TRULY a Blogger that deserves to enjoy your upcoming journey with all the rewards and trials it has to offer! I am so happy to see you moving in a direction of your life and CAREER that makes you happy and rewarded for your hard work! God's got you so keep yourself grounded and going because you ain't seen NOTHING YET!!! Be Blessed!
I'm a big fan of yours and very happy that you shared this huge milestone with your viewers. Nothing better than taking a leap of faith to pursue your passion. keep up the good work!!
yes yes yes yes yes ....Congrats Mo.....go for your dreams girl .....
Congratulations!!! So excited for you!
Congratulations you are going far and you so deserve it!!! God doesn't make any mistakes and everything you did before was for what you are about to embark on! So proud of you and happy you are in NYC...
Mo Congratulations!!! May the Lord continue to bless you in all your future endeavors. So proud of you!
This video is so inspiring. I'm so glad you following your dreams. You already know so much about hair care but now your gift will be licensed so all the doors will be opened!! Congrats...we are so proud of you!!
I love your channel! I'm finally able to catch up on watching missed videos. Great story...it was very encouraging to my own journey. Congrats on all your recent accomplishments and good luck with everything!
Congrats on you journey !!!! Looking forward to seeing your success !!!
I am so happy for you! congratulations on your new adventure!!
This video brought me to tears. I am a current cosmetology student and I look up to you so much. You have taught me so much about natural hair care. I am also on the road to changing my career path. For years people have told me that I have a talent and to follow my dreams. It's a bit scary but I'm doing it. And that line abt using your talents and God will take care of you, I love that. God bless you on your journey.
This literally made me cry Soror!!! I'm soooo proud of you and if you ever open a salon, I will come from Atlanta, GA to wherever you are. Your channel has single handedly taught me how to transition my already "natural" hair from color & heat damage. Your product reviews have helped me to identify my "holy grail" products and my perfect cocktail. And for that, I'm grateful and feel a connection because as you grow through YOUR journey, my own hair journey is more successful. So cheers to you because as my Pastor would say, "your best and brightest days are still ahead of you"!!! Love you girl and may God continue to bless you!
Thank you for sharing your career journey with us. It says in the Bible a man's/woman's gift will make room for him/her and place you before the king. You have been faithful with what God has placed in your heart to do and you are now reaping the fruits of your labor. What an inspiration! Thank you for you and God bless!
You go, Mo! You are such an inspiration!
So happy for you! Your story is inspiring and up lifting. Keep moving towards your vision. Thank you for sharing and I look forward to seeing more of your journey.

He who began a good work n you will be faithful to complete it! This is only the beginning for an amazing person.. much love from Trinidad n Tobago!!

Mo, I have been watching your videos since the very start and it has been amazing to watch your growth (along with my hair's growth, thanks to your advice). You deserve all the good things coming to you and more. We love you and we are rooting for you! I am still searching myself, but I hope one day I can discover my talent/passion and be able to build that into something amazing, as you have. This video has really inspired me to continue exploring!

Love you Mo! Congratulations and many positive vibes are coming your way!😘
Congratulations Mo! I am so proud of you. God Bless!!
This is touching to me. I am an Aveda institute graduate 2013. I worked for an aveda salon for almost 3 years before it relocated. I volunteered to be a "social media superstar" for that salon when I was first hired, but I was not supported to make the position what It could have been. Hearing your story now gives me hope that the next time I choose to work with aveda, in a salon or on social media, the company will be ready to support future superstars like you. For the past year I have been building my blog and RUclips channel. I have watched you and your use of Aveda products and have been inspired all along the way. I'm so happy that you will be an aveda-trained cosmetologist and I can call you my colleague. Good luck! I know you will love the institute and I look forward to more inspiring content from you.
Congrats Mo & Thanks for all you do. Much success.
Congratulations! I am truly happy for you and wish you the best in your journey.
Go Mo!!! Your story is amazing! Congratulations! 😘
Congratulations, Mo! It's been wonderful to see your growth and I'm very happy for you! This video was so inspiring!

That brought tears to my eyes. So awesome!
Congrats Mo! Extremely happy for you and your accomplishments!
Congratulations!!!!! This is so awesome!!! Wish you continued blessings!!!
Mo, I literally raised my hands when you said you were pursing cosmetology full time! I've been following you since early 2014 & I can only imagine how amazing an accomplishment this is for you. As for your relocation to NYC, I did the same in 2013 from NC for my creative company and it was the best decision I have ever made. I am so excited for you and look forward to supporting your haircare journey.
Wow, I'm so proud and happy for you!!! I love watching your videos and I know you will go far!!
