Default headlights/highbeams crapped out

so basically i drove my car with the headlights working, parked, and when i got back in the car my headlights/high-beams wouldn't turn on. the amber running lights and signals still work.

i won't have time to look into it until tomorrow so i was hoping to get some ideas before then. is it most likely a fuse?

thanks

so it was the fuses, both sides. should i be worried that they both blew at the same time for no apparent reason?

that does sound odd, has there been any wiring changes on the vehicle, did you drive through any wet conditions before they blew. Good chance of a short in the system, you'll find out after driving for a bit if they blow again.
