Do Americans use this term? And if so, for male scalps, shaven lady-gardens or both of the above?

Bald As A Coot. Yes, but more infrequently, for bald men. Shaved ladies, no.

How's "bald as an eagle," that 'Merkin enough for ya?

bald as a billiard ball

In my part of 'Merica I have heard "bald as a coot" to describe baldness.

Note: A coot is a small, dark grey bird with a circle of white feathers on its head.
