About Me
Mandy Baxter
I'm a proud resident of the charming town of Cartersville, GA, where I've called home since the age of 13. Family is at the heart of my journey, and I've been fortunate to share 23 wonderful years of marriage with my husband. Together, we're parents to three incredible children - bright, beautiful, and driven individuals. We are active members of our church which we’ve attended for 23 years and thank God for our church, our family, and our gifts that we are able to use through our work!
My husband's dedication to the family business, specializing in demolition and grading, has been a rewarding journey. What makes it even more special is that two of our children are actively involved, creating a legacy that spans generations. As a hairstylist, entrepreneurship has shaped my journey, from independent contracting to owning three salons. Today, I'm the proud owner of Neeley Salon Suites, a thriving venture with seven unique salon spaces, including my daughter Neeley, the inspiration behind our name.
Welcome to my Transformative Hair Haven!
Baxter Hair Co.
With 20+ years of hairstyling experience, I create enchanting hair experiences that reflect your unique style and personality. My focus on healthy hair and the latest trends ensures your dreams become reality.
Every appointment is a celebration of your individuality, with utmost care for your hair's vitality. As a Redken Certified Colorist and Design Stylist, my commitment to excellence drives me to master new techniques.
In 2021, a new purpose took root—using extensions to help women heal from hair loss and trauma by restoring their confidence strand by strand. That purpose is at the heart of Baxter Hair Co. Today, I specialize in hybrid extension transformations, combining the fullness of wefts with the precision of keratin tips to create results that look and feel like your own hair—only better. Every certification I hold was earned through dedicated training, hands-on classes, and real mentorship. Extensions Specialist isn’t just a title to me —it’s a reflection of my deep commitment to education, integrity, and truly customized care. Because this isn’t just about adding hair. It’s about restoring the woman wearing it.
Today, I'm thrilled to join you on a path where hair struggles transform into dreams come true. Whether restoring confidence, adding volume, or embracing a new look, I'm here every step of the way. Thank you for considering me as your partner in this transformative endeavor.
Let's celebrate resilience, beauty, and the power of hair!
