Styling the comments of a post on WP

Question

I can't stylize the elements that only show on the page when it has comments ( <comments> , <commentlist> etc) with the CSS file. I got it to work like

<?php here it calls the comments if any ?>
<style>
 .comments{}
</style>

I would like to know why this happens and if there is any better way to deal with this. Thanks

There is no need to dynamically add CSS by PHP.

If you are not using the header(“Content-type: text/css”); before output, then CSS, which has been dynamically produced, will slow down your page. It will behave as internal CSS, therefore the better solution is to cache it.
