I don't see why you shouldn't be able to achieve that. MB in his video has a simimlar hair style, only a lot less dense, and not spiked out on the sides, but it's the same idea.

Exposing so much of front hairline, however, is I think a bit of a challenge for a newbie. I think with all the other things you need to master, it is easier to gel your hair forward or comb it down, so you don't have to also learn how to maintain a perfect hairline.

Also, with the hair spiked up like that, you basically have a hairline all around your head. If you are applying the unit yourself, then getting the seams to match perfectly is also something of a challenge.

Executive summary: Yes, it's possible, but I'd try an easier style first, if I were you. Unless you are the type who revels in the challenge and are a natural handyman.
