Is this true even if you've not alerted them? I remember sneaking around in NV head-shot-ing everything with a silenced sniper rifle, and if they weren't aware of me it'd kill instantly

That is true, a good distance away and moving to a new spot after you did a headshot helped.
To make you undetectable, it's best to walk slowly (cap lock) which result in the Caution bar slowly disappearing instead of increasing toward Danger;
If the bracket start moving closer to the word, it mean the chance of being detected increased.
Bracket moving away from the word - less likely to be detected then turn to Hidden.

I'm playing on Very Difficult and dealing with Gunners and Child of Atom followers. They have re-enforced heads, even when sniped undetected from long range.

Welcome to Fallout.
One of the 'features' of the game is that visually unarmored enemies will still need several direct hits with high caliber weapons before they drop.
It's bit irritating hitting humans in the head with a ridiculously highly leveled sniper rifle bullet - or even a missile - and have them shake it off like I'd hit them with a tennis ball.
