If you're talking to me, I came to that conclusion for a few reasons. First, the hair line looks unnatural, it is very high, but the rest of the hair is very dense. Usually someone who has such a high hair line is not going to have such good density on top. Second, because a receding hair line is generally higher in the corners than in the middle. That hair line doesn't seem to follow that pattern which is rare. Third, because I saw you're bald picture and I remember thinking that the shadow on your head doesn't mimic your hair loss pattern. Finally, because you asked, "how ugly doe s this look?" People don't refer to their hair as "this," That being said, it looks pretty natural. I would bring it down lower, I don't see the point in wearing a wig if you're still going to look like you're balding.
