CSS not taking affect?

My site used to look as it should. I relaunched workspaces and clicked "preview" again- CSS (main.css) seems not to be affecting the site anymore. I did not change the position of any files. This is my <head> code:

<head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Anna Mendelev | Puppies and Bananas</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css"> <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Changa+One|Open+Sans:400,400italic,700,700italic,800' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/responsive.css"> <meta name="viewpoint" content="width=device-width initial-scale=1.0"> </head>

-Is this a known workspaces bug? -What am I missing?

If you think the stylesheet is not being loaded for some reason, you can also use the dev tools and select network. There you can see there what files are being loaded. If you see main.css file then you know it's being loaded. After that try and reset your browser data/caching. you should be good to go.
