She was born September 25, 1947 in Lawrence, KS, the daughter of John Robert Needels and Edith Lorene (Ewing) Needels. Her family moved from Kansas to Arizona to Texas before settling back in Baldwin City in 1961. Carol graduated from Baldwin High School with the class of 1965. Following high school, she went to cosmetology school and would eventually own and operate her own salon, Style-A-Rama.
