can you dye hair that has already been bleached as highlights?

could i for example dye it with a tint, or colour that washes out after 24washes for example?

i have bleached highlights and dont like them much anymore coz they're so light, i want to get them darker.....like a dark brownish colour.

Any ideas?
my hair's naturally very dark brown, almost black.

thanks in advance :)

Okay this is just me but i have colored over my highlites before and have been okay. I think i used a semi-perm color tho. I dont often use perm color. Also the next time I do color my hair im going to try the Robert Craig brand.. apparently his has no amonia, peroxide or anything harmful and it can be perm or semi depending on how long you leave it in. AND you can use it over old color or color you just put in and dont like on the same day because its so gentle. Only thing is it wont lighten your hair because it doesnt contain the amonia or peroxide or other chemicals needed to lift the color from your hair. Ive read great reviews about this on NaturallyCurly.com His site is RobertCraig.com
