So I ran over a lot of post treating of this specific problem but none of the answer seems to work for my case.
So this is the process : I installed mysql via homebrew that lead me to this :
Marjorie:~ Mawel$ brew install mysql
==> Downloading https://homebrew.bintray.com/bottles/mysql-5.7.11.mavericks.bottle.tar.gz

You can try again using `brew postinstall mysql`
==> Caveats
We've installed your MySQL database without a root password. To secure it run:
mysql_secure_installation
To connect run:
mysql -uroot
A "/etc/my.cnf" from another install may interfere with a Homebrew-built
server starting up correctly.
To load mysql:
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.mysql.plist
Or, if you don't want/need launchctl, you can just run:
mysql.server start
I tried mysql.server start
Starting MySQL
. ERROR! The server quit without updating PID file (/usr/local/var/mysql/Marjorie.local.pid).
I looked for the file but the parent folder was empty :
Marjorie:mysql Mawel$ cd /usr/local/var/mysql/
Marjorie:mysql Mawel$ ls -all
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 Mawel admin 68 Apr 3 22:27 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 Mawel admin 170 Apr 3 22:00 ..
I then saw
Warning: The post-install step did not complete successfully
You can try again using `brew postinstall mysql`
So I run it after giving acces right to it.
Marjorie:etc Mawel$ brew postinstall mysql

READ THIS: https://git.io/brew-troubleshooting
If reporting this issue please do so at (not Homebrew/brew):
https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues
Still no changement at mysql.server start
Anybody could help me pls I really don't know what to do anymore :/
As a plus : here is my.conf (should I edit it ?)
# For advice on how to change settings please see

Edit
So after klanomath proposition I decided to clean all my mysql file and remove by the same time MAMP and MAMPro since they could be conflicting.
First step :
Marjorie:mysql Mawel$ brew uninstall mysql
Uninstalling /usr/local/Cellar/mysql/5.7.11... (12,817 files, 440.5M)
Then I ran sudo find / -name mysql and decided to clean it all :
/Applications/MAMP/db/mysql
/Applications/MAMP/db/mysql/mysql
/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysql
/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.22.0/darwin-2level/auto/DBD/mysql
/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.22.0/darwin-2level/DBD/mysql
/Applications/MAMP/Library/lib/python2.7/site-packages/mysql
/Applications/MAMP/tmp/mysql
find: ‘/dev/fd/3’: Not a directory
find: File system loop detected; ‘/dev/fd/4’ is part of the same file system loop as ‘/dev/fd’.
find: File system loop detected; ‘/dev/fd/5’ is part of the same file system loop as ‘/dev’.
find: File system loop detected; ‘/dev/fd/6’ is part of the same file system loop as ‘/dev/fd’.
find: ‘/dev/fd/7’: Not a directory
find: ‘/dev/fd/8’: Not a directory
/Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP PRO/db/mysql
/Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP PRO/db/mysql/mysql
/private/var/mysql
/Users/Mawel/Library/Logs/Homebrew/mysql
/usr/local/var/mysql
I hard cleaned up this and finish with this :
Marjorie:/ Mawel$ sudo find / -name mysql
find: ‘/dev/fd/3’: Not a directory
find: File system loop detected; ‘/dev/fd/4’ is part of the same file system loop as ‘/dev/fd’.
find: File system loop detected; ‘/dev/fd/5’ is part of the same file system loop as ‘/dev’.
find: File system loop detected; ‘/dev/fd/6’ is part of the same file system loop as ‘/dev/fd’.
find: ‘/dev/fd/7’: Not a directory
find: ‘/dev/fd/8’: Not a directory
And finally I ran again brew install mysql
And same problem came up :
Warning: The post-install step did not complete successfully You can try again using
brew postinstall mysql
And same schema again.
