I found the answer to question - since I've been using eggs for shampoo - was getting itchy and now I know to remove the white and just use the yolk which is lower. Hope this helps you - the link below has some facts for you

Egg yolk has more sulfur content compared to egg albumin. Sulfur is primarily found in the form of sulfur-containing amino acids such as cysteine and methionine. Egg yolk contains more of these amino acids than egg albumin, making it higher in sulfur.
Albumin is a protein found in the egg whites, which give the whites their colorless appearance. The term "white" refers to the physical characteristic of the albumin forming a clear liquid when cooked, as opposed to the yolk which is yellow.
The chalaza in an egg is a rope-like, white "thing" that you might find in a scrambled or fried egg. If you look carefully, you can see it in a raw egg. What is does is it stabilizes or suspends the yolk, so that in a fresh egg the yolk floats in the middle of the albumin (egg white). When candling an egg, one thing you look for is that the yolk of an older egg will be near the shell and definitely visible. In a freshly laid egg, the you see a "shadow" of the yolk, and as you twirl the egg, the chalaza keeps the yolk in the center and away from the shell.

Albumen is the egg white
Albumin typically has very low sulphur content compared to egg yolk, as the latter contains a higher concentration of sulphur-containing compounds such as cysteine and methionine. This is because egg yolk serves as a nutrient-rich environment for the developing embryo, requiring a diverse range of essential amino acids, including sulphur-containing ones.

Egg yolks can cause gas and smell like sulphur when passed.
Egg Albumin
Egg whites, also called albumin, consist of several distinct layers. Chalaziferous white: This innermost layer surrounds the egg yolk. It is like a protective capsule, which protects the yolk in the center of the egg. Chalazae are more prominent
Albumin is a protein found in the egg whites, which give the whites their colorless appearance. The term "white" refers to the physical characteristic of the albumin forming a clear liquid when cooked, as opposed to the yolk which is yellow.
Egg albumin is primarily composed of a protein called albumin. The structure of egg albumin is complex and consists of numerous amino acids linked together in a specific sequence to form the protein. It adopts a globular shape due to its folding pattern, which helps in its solubility and functionality in various biological processes.
Egg whites are made of proteins and fluid to nourish a chick; FYI - commercial eggs sold at grocery stores do not have chicks growing in them. One of the major proteins is albumin, which is also a major protein in the blood stream of most mammals. This albumin is fairly sticky, which makes the egg white viscous and thick.

An egg yolk is an undeveloped egg. If the egg is fertilised it would become a chick. The eggs we eat are the equivalent of a women's period (time of the month). Dark
