You can use random version id in your link. for example use this:

   rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

where myStyle.css is stylesheet file and DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyyMMddhhmmss") function used for generate random different version id. By using this random version id,browser forced to reload your css.
