3. Akshay Kumar has had his hair styled -> something that Akshay Kumar 'made' someone to 'do for him'. He did not do it himself. -> Causative form.
Causative verbs are used to show that a person causes, makes, or enables another person to do something or make something happen.

Causative form:
'Have + object + verb 3' (past participle) – have something done
'Have + object + infinitive' – have someone do something

You can sometimes also use 'get' in place of 'have', but that is more informal.
