Moq: That is your contention. I know of no source the psak of Rav Elyashev was ever retracted. Please present it. Even reading FMF’s above comments seems to indicate his wife abides by Rav Elashev’s original shaitel psak. The idea Rav Elyashev “quietly retracted” comes across as a way out of abiding by the psak. What about the Lipa (and others) concert? Was Rav Elyashev and the other gedolim’s decree thereof forbidding it also “quietly retracted”? Or are we still forbidden from attending such concerts? (FMF is consistent on this point, as he said he avoids the concerts and shaitels. But others are picking which psak gedolim they like.)
