No one is debating whether there is an issue with modesty nowadays. However, the question is WHAT is rendered as modest and what not, and your assessment’s are totally incorrect.
Attractive and beautifying is NOT what the issue is, as quoted by many above.
The issue in concern are the wigs that attract attention either by length or other methods, not by the fact of it’s “natural look” … And as quoted by the above family members of Rav Elyashiv and Rav Shlomo Zalmen ZTL:
?????? ?????? ??? ??? ????? ??? ?????, ?????? ?? ?? ?????? ??? ?????, ?? ??? ?? ?????? ???? ?????.
??? ???? ??? ???? ??? ??, ?? ????? ??????? ?????????? ???? ?????? – ??? ??? ???? ??? ??? ??, ?? ??? ????? ?????? ????????? ?????? ??? ?????? ?? ?? ?????? – ?? ???? ?? ??? ????, ??? ??? ???.
??? ???? ??? ?? ??? ??? ?????? ?????? ?????, ??? ??????? ?????? ?”?, ?????? ???? ??? ?????, ??? ???? ???; ????? ????? ?? ???? ?? ??? ???? ???????.
It’s worthy to note, that both Rav SZ and Rav Elyashiv were from the Yishuv haYashan Perushim of Yerushlayim where all women went covered as per minhag and tekanah. I am sure that was still the overall custom at the times they got married.
In any case, the very fact that BOTH of their daughters and grandchildren indeed went/ go indicates more that anything elsewhere.

Personally, I don’t pasken from ANY of these. It’s just to demonstrate how awkward it’s to rely on any of these Kol Korahs, letters, books, stories etc.
However, what we can certainly believe is the following words of
????? ??? ???? ????? ??????????? ????”?, ????? ?????? ??? ????,
“??? ??? ??? ??? ?????? ????? – ??? ??? ???? ???.”
