Where should I put custom CSS?

The safest place is wherever your theme expects "custom CSS", because it's designed to survive typical edits.

Recommended approach

• Use the theme's Custom CSS field/section if provided.
• If not, use a dedicated custom CSS file that's clearly named and documented.

What to avoid

• Editing core theme CSS files line-by-line without notes
• Using !important everywhere (it becomes unmaintainable)

Best practice

Keep CSS changes scoped and comment your intent (what you're changing and why).
