  First of all you need to pick a theme that allows you to use a custom header

  Which themes can I add a header image to?

  Dusk isn’t one of them.

  After you change your theme to one that supports a Custom header, there’s a place under Presentation in the dashboard where you can upload your custom header. Be warned that it has to be the size mentioned on that FAQ page.
