Got

could someone explain me the use of GOT.
I know we can use got or gotten as past particle, I also know that we we use have got as have sometimes depend on the meaning.

In this sentence. It's about time you got your hair cut. Why " GOT" is used instead "GET" because is the have of it's about time you have got your hair cut. if so why and when you can omit "HAVE"? If it's not the case. someone can explain the use of "GOT" in the sentence.
