Fuse box would be a great place to start. It's under the hood and subject to the elements, so it can be an issue depending on your location.
Do you have a test light that you can verify power with?
Also, the plugs at the headlights themselves will always be energized if it's stock wiring. However, if you car has been modified (as your handle suggests) then anything is possible. Lots of guys who work on cars have no idea what they are doing when it comes to electrical systems, so modifications are usually a step backwards in engineering.

Fuses
Wiring
Headlight switch
Headlight relay
Headlights
It would help if you clarified your symptoms. Do you have taillights? Blinkers? High beams?

Because when you spend a silly amount of money on a silly, trivial thing that will help you not one jot, you are demonstrating that you have a soul and a heart and that you are the sort of person who has no time for Which? magazine. – Jeremy Clarkson
