Rapper Dan Sur gets gold chains surgically implanted into his head (photos)

A US rapper, Dan Sur, is bragging about being the first person to have gold chains as hair after he surgically implanted them into his scalp.

The reggaeton rapper and producer, 23, has been showing off his bizarre new headpiece to his near two million followers on social media.

MTO News reports the artist installed loads of hooks all over his noggin so that he could attach the chains.

"The truth is that I wanted to do something different because I see that everyone dyes their hair. I hope not everyone copies me now," he said in one of his posts.

"I have it as a hook that is implanted in my head and that hook has hooks and they are all hooked in my skull, under my skin.

"This is my hair. Golden hair. The first rapper to have gold hair implanted in human history."
