Chemically treating (straightening, perming or coloring your hair) makes the hair shafts weak and they tend to break into split ends. The same thing goes for all styling tools, such as a blow dryer, chi iron, curling iron, hot rollers, and so forth. It also isn't good on your hair to brush it 100 strokes every night like people used to think. If you use a good shampoo and conditioner, let your hair dry naturally (as long as it you don't have to use a brush and blow dryer to straighten your hair), it will be in much better shape than if you put any chemicals or use any styling implements on it. Deep conditioning helps your hair, too, and most people can get by with leaving on a good conditioner for five to ten minutes and then rinsing it out with warm, not hot, water. It is also a myth that rinsing your hair in cold water will make it shine more. Actually, as long as you use a good, mild shampoo, light conditioner, and if you want, a detangler or glossing solution, the better condition your hair will be in. And getting a trim every couple of months helps keep the split ends at a minimum. Never pull a brush or comb through your hair roughly -- be gentle. And no, I don't recommend coloring or highlighting hair because of the harsh chemicals. You are still taking risks of damaging your hair even when a professional stylist does the work. I hope this helps. :)

Whenever you put harsh chemicals in you hair, whether they be dyes, streaks, highlights, perms, or relaxers...they break your hair down. They're not good for your hair.
But most of us only care for the way it looks and not what the actual damage is.
Many hairdressers believe that any time you use a chemical process on your hair it will cause some level of damage. While the permanent hair colors may in some cases cause damage, the semi and demi-perms are considered much safer overall.
There are risks with all types but the most risk falls with the permanent colors, especially if a two step process is utilized.
Damage can also occur if the wrong level of peroxide is used (for extreme color lifting) or you are over-processing (too many permanent colors are applied) your hair.
If you constantly change your hair color, especially if you go from blonde to brown and back to blonde, you must regularly use deep conditioning treatments to try and counterbalance the potential damage to the hair.
Highlighting hair IS highlighting hair. However, there ARE chemicals that should not be used on top of specific other chemicals. Whether to use a “peroxide agent” or an “enzyme agent” is very much a matter of preference among stylists. Beautiful colors can be achieved with either method. However, whether your hair is lifted with either peroxide or enzyme, all hair should be “filled-in” before changing lifting methods. While many clients believe “it’s just hair color”, the truth is, these are very strong chemicals and should be used with appreciation and respect for their power.
