Follow the instructions here.

Before you do that though, can I ask why? There's generally little reason to do this and you risk deleting/editing something you shouldn't.

To prevent people from fooling around where they probably shouldn't be tinkering. Take for instance the /usr folder. I'd guess that 99% of Mac users don't even know it exists or, if they do, have absolutely no need to interact with it directly. However, significant damage can be done if you start editing certain parts of /usr.
