I did that by myself. I had highlights for like 3 months and I decided I didn't like them so I bought a semi-permanent dye (it fades away with washes) that would match my original hair color.
The pros of this is that, even though it fades with washes, it will always remain darker than the original highlights. Besides, if you choose correctly you won't get roots, whereas with a permanent dye (that damages your hair a whole lot more) you'll see your roots showing because the dye will never be exactly as your hair color is. I've used the semi-permanent dye twice because the first time it kinda washed away quickly and I figured that the more I dyed it, the darker it would be even if it washed off. i was right.
Right now it's been a month and a half since I've last dyed it and it's considarebly lighter, but there are no signs of roots showing and it looks pretty good. I'm still thinking about dying it again. I'm not sure.
P.S: Make sure to try the color in a little stripe in a non visible part of your hair just in case you don't like it.

Typically, the highlight processed is done by stripping the natural color from your hair. ie..bleaching. Therefore, there is no color pigment to "get back", because it's been bleached away. I'm not aware of any procedure to get your coloring back without using traditional hair dye, something that matches your own natural color.

the only way to change them a bit without dying is to use a henna shampoo but that isn't very strong and may make you a but ginger. if you want them to fade faster use a harsher, medical cleansing shampoo, although this won't look very good.

You can't literally "take them out". The only option you're really going to have is to dye your hair all one color.
Good luck!
