I think level 5 is where it starts happening.
Xp loss is based on the xp it takes to complete the previous level.
Xp loss during a hell level before level 52 will be something like 4%.
Xp loss during the level immediately after a hell level will be soul crushing (~16%).

Xp loss during the 50s where it's hell after hell is terrible. Get rezzes in your 50s.
As a bard you shouldn't stress about xp loss for the first 51 levels or so, xp loss is just not a concern for bards.
You can die 4 learning deaths and then make up for them and then some in one pull if you want to.

My understanding has been the formula is the exact same regardless of level. When you die you lose 10% of the experience you needed to gain to complete the previous level. This is why the levels after hell levels you lose nearly double the experience (nearly a full yellow bub vs the normal 1/2 yellow). Conversely, dying in a hell level doesn't seem as bad because you're only losing about 1 1/4 blue instead of 2 1/2 blue.
