You need to set colors for Highcharts in that way, for example, basing on default colors:

var colors = Highcharts.getOptions().colors.slice(0), // get default colors
    dark = -0.5;


colors[1] = Highcharts.Color(colors[0]).brighten(dark).get(); // using Highcharts.Color(), get darker golor, using first color as base

colors[3] = Highcharts.Color(colors[2]).brighten(dark).get();

Now just set this colors:

$('#container').highcharts({

    chart: {
        type: 'column'
    },

    colors: colors,

You can use an hex color as:

                var colors = [];
                colors[0] = '#ff0000';
                colors[1] = '#ff6600';

and then use:

                Highcharts.chart('your_char_id', {
                    chart: {
                        type: 'column'
                    },
                    colors: colors,

colors = ['#195594', '#a4d3fd', '#dde0e0'];

and then

Highcharts.chart('your_char_id', {
    chart: {
        type: 'column'
    },
    colors: this.colors,
});
