It is never a foul; it may be a violation though.
I think your language is too imprecise to give you an answer, but I'll try.
1. If the player is simply dribbling the ball very high, including over his head, it is not against any of the rules.
2.a. If the player is holding the ball over his head and then starts his first dribble from there by throwing the ball down, this is a legal play.
2.b. If the player is dribbling very high, and during a high dribble above the level of his head the ball comes to rest in his hand before being dribbled again, it is a double-dribble violation.
