How to Make the Header Sticky in Shopify Dawn Theme

Dawn has a native sticky header option — no custom code needed to keep navigation visible as shoppers scroll.

Steps

1. In your Shopify admin, go to Online Store > Themes and click Customize on Dawn.
2. Select the Header section (it's the first item on any template).
3. Find the Sticky header setting and choose On scroll up (appears only when scrolling back up, saves screen space) or Always (stays visible at all times).
4. Click Save.

"On scroll up" tends to work better on mobile, where a permanently fixed header eats into an already small screen.
