Surely you know that they have made Subarus for a lot of years, at least since the early 70s, and made a lot of different models. They started out with sealed beam headlamps which take an entirely different type of bulb and different method of replacing.
Perhaps it would be best if you checked with a local garage. If they will allow you to watch you can decide if you have the skill to change it yourself next time.
See "Headlight" on page 52 of chapter 11 "Maintenance and Service" in your "OWNER'S MANUAL".....
Replace headlight bulb only when blown.
On older vehicles you replace the entire headlight. On the newer vehicles you just replace the bulb unless the headlight assembly is damaged.
From under the hood, twist off the cover behind the headlight, then turn the collar that holds the bulb in place. Remove the bulb and replace it, reversing the above directions. DON'T TOUCH THE GLASS ON THE NEW BULB, DIRT OR GREASE WILL CAUSE IT TO BURN OUT QUICKLY.
