Can't install msqlclient for django/python3 [OSX 10.12.4]

when I'm running python3 manage.py runserver I get this message:

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading MySQLdb module: No module named 'MySQLdb'. 
Did you install mysqlclient or MySQL-python?

and because I'm using mysql database on python, I tried to install mysqlclient with pip3 I get another error:

Collecting mysqlclient

    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

Also i read online that mysqlclient is not supported by python3 but i get a similar error when trying to instal MySQL-python:

 Collecting MySQL-python

    Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

        from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser

How can I fix this and install mysql client for python or is there other method so I could use MySQL db in python?

Edit: python3 does support mysqlclient but not MySQL-python.

I'm not sure what I did, but I think the problem for me was that I had a bad $PATH. I was trying to do one of the steps I found on Google and after resetting the bash_profile and setting the Python path again, it was fixed for me.
