Is this head worrying? 

Hello all:)

As usual I don't make things perfect :) , But at this time I'm afraid that I might have done something wrong.

As you can see in the pic , do you think that this might not be stable or crack with strings tension?

IF it cracks it’s not going to be from string tension. I can’t imagine it cracking any way though. Especially since it’s two pieces of wood glued together, that makes it pretty strong.
I’m not a guitar builder but I work with wood daily.

I don't think the string tension would affect that end of the slots much or at all.
