Find anime art you like that looks like that, if there are artists you like doing it then do what they do. FZD's tips are great for one style of lining. Many of those concepts carry over to other styles, some are more for the industrial/graphic style he does.

Typically the line weight like that will be for places in shadow (think bangs of hair or folds of clothes), sometimes things closer to the ground/closer, on some overlaps (but not a huge line weight difference), and more likely on men than delicate things like women. Sometimes the overlaps can happen naturally from inking such as with a dip pen starting from places that are close by or digital brush with a fixed or high minimum size. Find pictures and decide for yourself. For me when I see an abundance of forced overlaps like that I know the artist is Western. Anime art tends to avoid line design where a lot of overlaps would happen.

Look up ぺん入れ to find examples of this. Girls hair will typically be a maru pen line weights.

Yes, the artist in your pic only really uses it under the bangs of the hair for shadow added towards the end. Everything else is fairly uniform. jap and chinese artists don't go out of their way doing what was shown in the video. I tried to find anything like that in art i like or save and couldn't.
