Do you mean like h1 h2 h3 h4 h5 h6 headlines?

If you had an h1 tags that you wanted red you would just do this:

h1 {
    color: red;
}

to complete the challenge you also need to know how to use multiple selectors for the same rule which you do by comma separating the selectors like so:

h1,
h2 { color: #fff; }

it is helpful if you include more information with your question so that people know what you are trying to do and what you don't think you understand about the task
