Yes, you can use a dark brown haircolor over top. Go with a semi-permanent so you don't get any lifting action. You only need deposit. Semi-perms are formulated with a very low level of peroxide and usually no (or low) ammonia so they don't have the lifting action which is what brings out the orangey underlying pigments that you don't want.

Hope this helps,
