I'm using Xubuntu 20.04 and when I change to a dark theme, like Greybird-dark or Adwaita-dark which are preinstalled by default, the window bar is not rendered properly and looks really ugly (see the screenshot below):

How do I fix this?

"Ugly" is a relative term. The theme developpers may like that. Indeed, you may want to change your window theme. In XFCE, use Window Manager settings to set a different window theme (i.e., the look of (legacy) window decorations: title and border). That theme for the window decorations is independent from the theme used by the application (for rendering widgets, etc).
