Changing link colour

I’m using the theme hueman, and have created a child theme to control some style elements, one of which is link colour in the body of my posts. I’m using the following code:

<style>
<!–
.entry a:link {color: #1400ED; background-color: transparent; text-decoration: underline; }
.entry a:visited {color: #C4B7F7; text-decoration: none; }
.entry a:hover {color: #FA0000; text-decoration: underline; }
.site-title a { display: block; color: #1400ED; max-width: 100%; }
–>
</style>

The visited and hover elements work fine, but the basic unviewed link element won’t change, no matter what I do.

Am I correct in thinking that this child theme should override all of the parent theme’s css for post links with when done this way? Or am I missing something in my parent theme css that could be interfering?

Someone else suggested weighting my css with !important, but that didn’t work.
