"When Thangorodrim was broken and Morgoth overthrown, Sauron put on his fair hue again and did obeisance to Eonwe, the herald of Manwe, and abjured all his evil deeds."
This sorta implies Sauron just hung around the Thangorodrim without a fair form. Maybe the form he prefers to wear at home and with Melkor looks ugly to us, but he likes it. Like maybe Melkor has weird tastes and likes Mairon looking weird. Or maybe there is an ideal shape Mairon likes that Elves or other Maiar don't like, but Melkor accepts him as he is. Maybe being in his fair form feels like wearing a costume.

Annatar, the fair form taken by Sauron at the time he forged the One Ring. His design draws on a mixture of Minoan and Tudor inspiration.

End of the Second Age. Sauron knew every microexpression on Celebrimbor’s face—and that’s when the paintings began. Hundreds, perhaps thousands. Few ever accessed the dark tower, but those who did whispered of a mysterious elf carved over and over along the pillars and shadowed halls of Barad-dûr. They wondered—not aloud—who he was and what it meant. "Are all my thoughts of you, sweet raptured light? It ends here tonight."

“You are their slave. Sauron, Lord of the Rings.”
I never saw the forging of The One Ring as a triumphant moment for Sauron, but a gross miscalculation and a moment of humiliation. He splits himself and maims his fëa for power, and in return he gains the ultimate Achilles heel.
