Well it could happen that both of them blow at the same time, however it is VERY rare that, that ever happens. Sounds like you have a short somewhere in the wiring for the headlights. I would rule out a fuse cause you said that you still had your high beams. So I would just trace out the wiring for the headlights, you could start where the wiring splits off to go to each individual headlight assy.

Good luck and hope it comes out well for you.

Pretty much what he said because i have the same problem with my left headlight, every now and then it comes on or off....i have to constantly pull over to fix the wiring so light comes back on. It's very annoying actually
