When navigating between menu items I can see flickering header.
It looks like it is shrinking and stretching for a second each time I change the category in header menu.
Can I change it somehow that the header is stable and not flickering?

Thank you!

Shouldn’t be the case, what browser are you using? Your URL too please? :)

WordPress in general is not a Single Page application, so the whole page gets rerendered (along with menus, images, headers etc), this is quite normal, in fact it looks pretty good as you can hardly see the pages render, it might be much slower in some hosting environments/real live server environments.

That being said you could still “fix” this further as the page aligns dynamically according to its dynamic header height. In your case it is currently being 81px so you could hardcode
some CSS to fix the body-content element. Try using this:

@media only screen and (min-width: 769px){
.content_body {
  margin-top: 81px !important;
}
#transparent_header .content_body {
  margin-top: 0 !important;
}
}

Have in mind this is a hardcoded fix and if your header height changes this needs to be removed/updated.
