I think it looks good, especially for your length and experience with handlebars.

Im curious though on your next attempt - if you cannot get those stragglers to stay with the rest of the tip, what does it look like if you use your finger to point them downward to your beard connectors?
I like your look, I am just wondering if there is a small tweak that can make it really pop in the short term.
