Answer 1

If you want to style only the colors of the tooltips do as follow:

.tooltip-inner { background-color: #000; color: #fff; }
.tooltip.top .tooltip-arrow { border-top-color: #000; }
.tooltip.right .tooltip-arrow { border-right-color: #000; }
.tooltip.bottom .tooltip-arrow { border-bottom-color: #000; }
.tooltip.left .tooltip-arrow { border-left-color: #000; }

Answer 2

This one worked for me!

.tooltip .tooltip-arrow {
border-top: 5px solid red !important;}

Answer 3

For styling each directional arrows(left, right,top and bottom), we have to select each arrow using CSS attribute selector and then style them individually.

Trick: Top arrow must have border color only on top side and transparent on other 3 sides. Other directional arrows also need to be styled this way.

Here is the simple CSS,

.tooltip-inner { background-color:#8447cf;}

[data-placement="top"] + .tooltip > .tooltip-arrow { border-top-color: #8447cf;}

[data-placement="right"] + .tooltip > .tooltip-arrow { border-right-color: #8447cf;}

[data-placement="bottom"] + .tooltip > .tooltip-arrow {border-bottom-color: #8447cf;}

[data-placement="left"] + .tooltip > .tooltip-arrow {border-left-color: #8447cf; }

You can use this to change tooltip-arrow color

.tooltip.bottom .tooltip-arrow {
  top: 0;
  left: 50%;
  margin-left: -5px;
  border-bottom-color: #000000; /* black */
  border-width: 0 5px 5px;
}

I have created fiddle for you.

Take a look at here

<p>
    <a class="tooltip" href="#">Tooltip
        <span>
            <img alt="CSS Tooltip callout"
                 src="http://www.menucool.com/tooltip/src/callout.gif" class="callout">
            <strong>Most Light-weight Tooltip</strong><br>
            This is the easy-to-use Tooltip driven purely by CSS.
        </span>
    </a>
</p>

 

a.tooltip {
    outline: none;
}

a.tooltip strong {
    line-height: 30px;
}

a.tooltip:hover {
    text-decoration: none;
}

a.tooltip span {
    z-index: 10;
    display: none;
    padding: 14px 20px;
    margin-top: -30px;
    margin-left: 28px;
    width: 240px;
    line-height: 16px;
}

a.tooltip:hover span {
    display: inline;
    position: absolute;
    color: #111;
    border: 1px solid #DCA;
    background: #fffAF0;
}

.callout {
    z-index: 20;
    position: absolute;
    top: 30px;
    border: 0;
    left: -12px;
}
/*CSS3 extras*/
a.tooltip span {
    border-radius: 4px;
    -moz-border-radius: 4px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 4px;
    -moz-box-shadow: 5px 5px 8px #CCC;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 5px 5px 8px #CCC;
    box-shadow: 5px 5px 8px #CCC;
