Gaon-how nice and tidy (and extremely condescending) it is for you (and everyone else) to write off what I am saying as “interpretations of these books” etc..- a very convenient way to ignore the valid and sourced info I’m posting.
These “interpretations” are not my own nor are they just opinions of people who lack the knowledge and stature to say this info.
Obviously the Chofetz Chaim was referring to uncovered hair but his words made it clear that the mitzvah of kisui rosh is all about modesty- as do many other sefarim on this topic. Many Gedolim have made this clear too.
Rav Elyashiv and Rav Auerbach wrote letters blessing those women who wore tichels (I posted a few of them already) and they CLEARLY stated that one is not allowed to wear a natural looking wig (you could hear Rav Elyashiv saying that it is assur in a shiur he gave! What other proof do you need??).
I never wrote that they said a wig is assur, I wrote how they did not hold that the natural looking wigs were allowed (again, it doesn’t matter what their children and grandchildren wear, that is a very weak way to prove anything, we never look at a Gadols children to determine where he held)
I will post the words of mishmar Hatorah in a few minutes… (there’s no arguing with that)
