Default Hood is stuck and won't open

I've been looking around the whole forum and I can't find any good threads about this issue. When I pull the hood release, only the right side of the hood comes up and the left side doesn't move. After I installed my Stillen intakes, I had a friend close the hood while I started cleaning up. I've read through the forums that you have to drop the hood about 1-2 feet in the air so that the hood catches both the latches. I usually do this, but after the install I wasn't able to get my hood opened. I'm guessing my friend didn't close the hood properly??? Did this happen to anyone else? What did you guys do to solve this problem? I want to know if there's an easy way to fix this before I take it to the dealership. Your help is much appreciated.
