That seems … weird. Unless you know that **nothing** in that stylesheet will be 
used before the page has fully loaded. Otherwise the page will start 
re-rendering aka all kind of  FOUC. Are you confusing with scripts ?

There is nothing that requires one to put references to stylesheets in the head 
of an HTML document. However it is a good practice to put it there as it is a 
render blocking resource - meaning: it blocks any rendering until the whole 
stylesheet has been downloaded. It is a good idea, for performance reasons, to 
put it as high as possible in the head, and certainly before any script.
