apt-cache search : i.e
apt update 
apt-cache search linux-headers
then This 2 command will Show you the latest version of Header and Image in your terminal.

Then install the correct package e,g ( this is an example , it depends on the previous output command) :
apt-get install linux-headers-4.18.0-kali1-amd64
also run;
apt-cache search linux-image
install it:
apt-get install linux-image-4.8.0-kali1-amd64
Reboot your system.
Or you can use the following command to upgrade you kernel to the latest available version and install the appropriate kernel headers:
