My mother uses motioNs nourish leave-in and she says that she loves it. Now for me, I use the infuium 23... its done pretty well for me, but only if you dilute half the bottle. Otherwise, it would becom too sticky and hard. As for aphogee I really haven't tried it out so I don't know. Some other leave-ins are Nexxus Headress (leave-in). Thats the one that I use and I love it!! I use it right after I shampoo and it has really strengthened my hair. Some other raves that have been going are the biolage leave-in.
SO LETS REVIEW!!
((MY OWN LITTLE *STAR* CHART))
*-POOR **-BELOW AVERAGE
***- GETS THE JOB DONE, but NOTHING SPECIAL
****-GOOD *****-EXCELLENT!!
Infusium 23 (diluted)-***
Nexxus Headress-*****
Biolage-*****
Motions-****
Aphogee-?
And check some of the threads that are like a week old.
There is a thread thats called "top/bottom two leave-ins"
hope this helps
p.s.-
And you know its also about trial-and-error. You really have to get out there and try what works for you. I mean, these are just my opinions, no facts.
GOOD LUCK

When I used to use Infusium 23 as a leave-in, I found it very drying, which I blame on the protein. I still have a lot of it left so when I do use it, I mix it into whatever oil concoction I'm using for my pre-shampoo overnight treatment before applying it to my hair then I sleep in a plastic cap. I have no experience with the others.
I have the aphogee pro-vitamin leave in. it's okay I guess...I actually don't like the smell that much. It's like they put fragrance in to cover up this OTHER smell (the shampoo has this horrible strong smell and the pro-vitamin has like a trace of the same smell). It doesn't really detangle, I have to use other stuff for detangling (currently pantene). I might pass it on to a family member so I can try something new...

Thanks for your reply. I wrote about my experience with Infusium 23 on another post about no hair breakage. I haven't been experiencing hair breakage since I started air-drying and washing my hair everyday. For my leave-in, I use Nexxus Headress but today, I put some Infusium in my hair after the Headress and I started getting breakage. I looked at the label but I don't see any protein (Headress has protein). I may not use Infusium anymore.

I use Infusium, and have learned that less is better. I was soaking my hair in that stuff, and as it airdried, I couldn't figure out why my hair would get so crispy. Now, I use a little and that is muuuuch better on my hair. Once I'm out of Infusium, I'm going to try the Motions.

I like infusium 23
Motion is one of the best I have used so far. It does not leave your hair as stiff as Infusium does and it detangles making for a better roller set.
Aphogee leave-in is ok. I like the fragrance. It didn't really do anything spectacluar to my hair...it was average.
Another leave in that I love is VO5's color protection complex..talk about silky hair and slip...just as nice a an ACV rinse! It is primarily for color treated hair but I love way it makes my hair feel. It even protects your hair from sun damage. The only downfall is that it costs more than other leave-ins.
When I use the motions or V05 I use it with jojoba oil (another pricey item but worth the money).

I've used the Aphogee pro-vitamin leave-in, it didn't detangle my hair, leave it softer or stronger feeling. It was almost as if I sprayed my hair with water, so I wouldnt' recommend it.

i luv the motions nourish...i spray it on my wet and dry hair and it keeps my hair strong...and my kitchen nice and tangle free...
i do use infusium on and off...but when i do i always apply my oils to my hair prior..so the hard-effect is eliminated

I just tried Giovanni's Diret Leave in (Used to be called Direct Stay-In) and I love it!! It's more moisturizing than Headdress but has less slip than Kids Organics Shea Butter Lotion. I plan to rotate all three....
