High beams work but not low beams? HELP!

So I drove my car over to my brothers house to go ride the bike, after coming home i start the car and flick on the headlights and nothing happen. i still have interior lights on the cluster and the parking lights still come on and such but nothing else works. so i started to mess with it and realized my high beams work fine and all 4 lights do come on, but low beam i get nothing. I checked the switch on the steering column and it seemed to be working okay. (its clicking) but i just dont know where to look for something else. Any other ideas?

This is for an 88 camaro

the low beam bulbs have 2 filliments in them one for low one for high you might have blown out both low beams it confused me the first time it happen to me . Hopefully this is your problem and not something electrical good luck.
